I remember when I was a kid and dad would take us to Balboa Island. We’d cross on the ferry and drive down the main street. We always stopped at a little window (that’s the way I saw it) and dad bought us frozen bananas, covered in chocolate and nuts and they tasted so creamy and delicious!
Want to make some of these treats yourself? They are so easy!!
Here’s what you need:
- 2 Bananas
- ½ bottle Magic Shell (any flavor – I used chocolate fudge)
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts
- Popsicle sticks or thick wooden skewers
How to Do it:
Peel the bananas and cut them in half. Insert the sticks into the cut side and lay on wax paper or in a plastic container. Place in the freezer and freeze overnight.
Remove the bananas from the freezer and shake the Magic Shell. Lay the bananas on a plate and pour the Magic shell over them. Lift each and continue to cover with the chocolate – one at a time. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle it with nuts . It takes about a minute for the chocolate to begin to harden.
Lay the bananas down and serve, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Makes 4 servings

Whenever I see frozen bananas I think of visits to Uncle Bobs in Huntington Beach.
Funny thing is I didn’t like bananas until I was 9 months pregnant with my first son. I’ll have to try this recipe.
They are almost the same as the ones we got on Balboa Island!
Oh, my kids are going to love this! Thank you for sharing at The Really rafty Link Party. Pinned.

I am allergic to bananas and have never had a chocolate covered frozen banana, but I’m thinking that my grand kids would love these. I love your memory of Balboa island. Those memories are the best. Thanks for sharing and hosting What’s for dinner.
Thanks for stopping by – hope your grand kids like the treat!
Sounds like wonderful memories! Thank you for sharing your delicious treat with us over at Fiesta Friday!
They are great memories – and the bananas are pretty good too! LOL – thanks for stopping by.

My dad used to take us on the ferry at Newport Beach (California) when I was a kid and we’d always get a frozen banana. Not only does it taste decadent, it brings back fond memories. Thanks for hosting the party.
