Ingredients
12 strawberries, thinly sliced
1 small banana, sliced into rounds
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Desired toppings (coconut flakes, granola, or cacao nibs)
Instructions
Line a flat baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Slice all strawberries thinly and prepare banana rounds of even thickness.
Arrange the fruit slices on the baking sheet close together so they can bond.
Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate evenly over the layer of fruit.
Follow by drizzling the creamy peanut butter over the chocolate layer.
Sprinkle with selected toppings like coconut flakes or granola.
Place the tray in the freezer for at least 20-25 minutes until the chocolate is set and firm.
Notes
Ensure the fruit slices are thin so they freeze properly for a crisp texture. You can use any type of chocolate, but dark chocolate works exceptionally well with berries. Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
