These Chocolate Chunky Monkey Bites combine banana, gooey dates, creamy peanut butter, and a crisp dark chocolate shell for the easiest frozen treat! Save this the next time you’re craving something sweet.
1. Cut the banana in half crosswise, then slice each half lengthwise to create 4 chunky banana pieces.
2. Cut the Medjool dates in half lengthwise so you have 4 pieces. Place one date half on top of each banana piece.
3. Add about ½ tablespoon peanut butter on top of each date.
4. Place the bites on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 20–30 minutes, or until firm.
5. Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each. Stir in the coconut oil if using to create a thinner coating.
6. Dip each frozen bite into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off, then return to the parchment-lined tray.
7. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, then freeze until the chocolate shell is completely set.
8. Enjoy straight from the freezer, or let them sit for a few minutes for a softer banana center!
