Ingredients

You don't need much to make these Halloween banana mummies!

• Fresh Bananas
• Lily’s Original White Chocolate
• Candy Eyes

Optional - wooden skewers, popsicle sticks, or lollipop stick if you want to serve on a stick.

See the recipe card for quantities.

Instructions

Carefully peel bananas and cut them in half crosswise.

Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe small bowl or measuring cup in 30-second increments in the microwave, stirring often. 

Using a small spoon, drizzle lines of melted chocolate across each banana half in a crisscross pattern. Add candy eyeballs to the top of the banana mummies.

Place bananas on a parchment paper lined baking sheet or dish.

Place the bananas in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes until the chocolate has hardened.

Keep the bananas in the fridge till serving them.

Tips for Making Mummy Bananas

Preparation Tips - If you'd like more control of the melted chocolate, you can use a piping bag to pipe zigzags across the bananas.

Alternate Decoration Ideas - If you want to make banana ghosts, you can just coat the whole banana in white chocolate and still add the candy eyes.

Storage

These banana treats are best served the day they are made, but they will keep for up to a day or two in the refrigerator when stored in an airtight container.
