Elvis Dippers
Elvis Dippers came about from a need to clear out the 432 frozen bananas I had in my freezer. I didn’t want to make another banana bread (even though I LOVE banana bread). I just wanted something easy. So what else goes well with bananas…peanut butter. Obviously. So I mixed up some of the ripe bananas and some peanut butter and made a little graham cracker sandwich. But what was missing? Chocolate, of course!
And then was born Elvis Dippers. I cannot take credit for the name, that is the genius work of Steph from @awholelottaoven. Perfect name for these little gems.
We all loved these in out house and they stay in the freezer so you can enjoy them anytime you need a little sweet, but healthier fix.
