Frozen Banana Popsicle Treats…
I love the possibilities of toppings. When I was a kid, we just used chocolate to cover our bananas and loved them. Now, everything is a twist on the old classic.
You can add M&Ms, nuts, sprinkles, coconut shavings, Reese’s peanut butter cups…
Honestly, I might have to do another round and add the Reese’s and coconut – yum!
