Chocolate Bacon Almond Butter Bananas

Ohhhhhhh. ~shivers of ecstasy~
This is sexy on a stick. This is a grownup's popsicle.
This is ALMOST better than sex.
One tip: Make sure your bananas are FIRM. Not too overripe.
This is key to the whole thing. Now, go forth and indulge.

 
RECIPE:

... 3 bananas
6 strips of bacon, cooked crispy (or more to taste)
1/2 cup almond butter
1 cup chocolate chips or dark chocolate
cinnamon to sprinkle
 

1. – peel bananas
2. – cut each banana into thirds, and then cut each third in half lengthwise to make banana slices
3. – lay out your banana slices, add almond butter to both slices and then lay a slice of bacon on each slice
4. – put the 2 banana halves together to make a sandwich and set on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet to freeze
5. – continue this until all of your bananas are made into sandwiches with almond butter and bacon in the middle
6. – transfer to a freezer and let sit for at least 30 min
7. – when you’re ready, place your chocolate chips in a double boiler and temper your chocolate until it is melted
9. – remove your bananas from the freezer and dip each one in your melted chocolate and return them to your cookie sheet
10. – sprinkle them all with cinnamon and then return to the freezer
11. – keep frozen until ready to serve.
 
Teen Queen's Modification: S'mores Bananas
 
Instead of Almond butter, spread the bananas with Marshmallow fluff, dip fluff side in crumbled graham crackers and assemble and freeze. Dip in chocolate, refreeze.
