Description

Ingredients

• 1 box Trader Joes Banana Bread, prepared according to package muffin directions
• ⅓ container white frosting
• 1 T creamy peanut butter
• 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
• Sprinkles (the more bling-ed out the better!)
• 4 slices crispy fried bacon

Directions

• Take your prepared Banana Bread muffins and crumble into a large bowl.
• Mix in white frosting and peanut butter and mix to incorporate. The consistency should be tacky and able to form balls, but still cakey in texture.
• Form mix into balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter, but its your call how big you want to make your balls.
• Place formed balls on wax paper on a sheet pan and place in freezer to solidify, making it easier to coat in chocolate. Leave them in there at least 20 minutes.
• Melt chocolate in a double boiler until silky smooth.
• Take balls out of the freezer when chocolate is melted and coat in chocolate. This can be a tricky process, though. I found the easiest solution was to spear a ball with a toothpick, roll the ball around in the chocolate and use a spoon to ensure full coating all over the ball. I then would let the excess drip off and then place onto wax paper, remove the toothpick by twisting and then use a spoon to create a swirl of chocolate where the hole was. Youll have to experiment and youll inevitably end up with chocolate everywhere, but is that so bad?
• After each ball is coated, before chocolate sets, apply sprinkles and a sliver of crispy fried bacon.
• After all balls are coated and decorated, they can set in the fridge or be stored in the freezer.
