What a great idea! My DS and I had just read "Curious George in the Candy Factory" so it was perfect timing to make our own banana candy! It was a kitchen project that he could really get involved in, which is hard to find for a 3 year old. His favorites were rolled in sprinkles; I preferred plain. Even DH enjoyed them, and they were a hit after dinner on a hot day. DS has already asked to make these again, so I know it will be a repeat recipe. Thanks so much for posting, Queen Dana! Made for ZWT 7.

These are really good and the combinations are endless! I really like frozen bananas with chopped peanuts on them so of course that was my favorite. I also dipped them in toasted coconut, sprinkles, mini choco chips, butterfinger, and oreo cookie. These would be good cut up and served on top of vanilla ice cream as well as by themselves! Made for PAC Spring 2010.

I love trying new dishes. For me, food is a way of experiencing the world without leaving my home, and I'm hoping that as my two sons get older that I can convince them to come with me on my culinary adventures.
