Storks Movie Snack: Chocolate-Dipped Banana Penguins
Ingredients
  • 3 Bananas
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

  • 12 Candy eyes
  • 18 orange chocolate candies
  • 1 tbsp of buttercream frosting
Instructions
  1. Melt your chocolate chips either in the microwave or over a double boiler. Once completed melted, add coconut oil and stir until well combined. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set both chocolate and pan aside.
  2. Peel bananas and cut each one in half. Dip the pointed end of the banana in the chocolate, covering about 1 inch. Place carefully on lined cookie sheet and let chill for about 20 to 30 min. in the refrigerator.
  3. Once chocolate is set, use buttercream frosting to "glue" eyes and orange chocolate candies (these will serve as the penguin's beak and feet)

 

This recipe was created by our very talented writer, Lisa, and as you can see, it came out spectacular.  I want to share with you one of my favorite tips for melting chocolate, though. I don’t have a double boiler, and I don’t like to use the microwave to melt it because I can never quite get it right. I use a small or medium (depending on what I’m making) stainless steel saucepanstorks-movie-snack-penguin-recipe. I’m talking the old-school saucepans, here. We’ve had ours since I was a kid. I find that the chocolate melts perfectly over low heat. I can leave it on the lowest heat and stir as needed while I work without it seizing up. Cleanup is actually a lot easier than you might think!
