I’m a big fan of recipes that don’t make life harder. Most days are busy enough. Between work, family, and everything else on your plate, the last thing you need is a complicated dessert with a long ingredient list.
That’s exactly why I love this one.
It’s simple, it comes together quickly, and it still feels like something special. The kind of treat you can put out when people stop by, bring to a get-together, or just make for yourself at the end of a long day. Because let’s be honest, sometimes you don’t need a reason. You just want something sweet with your coffee and a few quiet minutes to enjoy it.
This is also one of those recipes you can make your own. Keep it simple, or dress it up a little if you’re hosting. Either way, it works. And it always gets eaten. Some of my favorite moments aren’t big, planned events. They’re the small ones. Sitting at the table a little longer. Catching up with a friend. Having something good to share without a lot of effort.
That’s what this recipe is for.
Simple, good, and worth making again.
Ingredients
1 cup of Peanut Butter (melted)
1 - ½ bag of Milk Chocolate Chips (melted)
2 whole Stroopwafels (cut into pieces)
1 banana (sliced into pieces)
What you will need:
1 six-count muffin/cupcake pan
12 cupcake liners
2 small, cereal-sized bowls for warming the peanut butter and chocolate
How to:
-
Take the cupcake liners and double-line each cupcake section of the pan.
-
Warm up the peanut butter in a small bowl in the microwave for no longer than 30 seconds or until warm.
-
Warm up the chocolate chips in a second small bowl for 30 seconds or until they are melted. Be sure not to overheat. Stir until all the chocolate chips melt.
-
Slice your banana into pieces, about a half-inch thick. Place one into each cupcake liner, then cover each with two small spoonfuls of peanut butter, or until each banana is covered.
-
Next, take your melted chocolate and spoon 2 small spoonfuls over each banana covered in peanut butter, until the chocolate covers the peanut butter fully.
-
Take your Stroopwafel pieces and place 3-4 small pieces onto the top of each cup.
-
Finally, take your Stroopwafel cups and place them in the freezer. Leave them for at least 1 hour. This will allow each cup to be completely solid. Serve and enjoy!
