How do I store these frozen snickers banana popsicles?
You’ll want to store these frozen chocolate snickers banana popsicles in the freezer. I like to store them in a sealed container for up to a week. You could probably store them for longer than that, but mine are usually gone within a couple days! If you don’t prefer frozen bananas, you could also store them in the fridge, though they won’t last as long in the fridge as they would in the freezer.

Frozen Snickers Banana Popsicles
Ingredients
- 3 ripe, but firm bananas
- 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips (4.5oz)
- 6 wooden popsicle sticks
- peanut butter
- crushed/chopped peanuts
- 1 tsp coconut oil (optional)
Instructions
- Peel 3 bananas and slice them each in half. Insert a popsicle stick into each banana half.
- Add some peanut butter to a microwave safe dish and heat the peanut butter until warm and runny (usually about 30 seconds).
- Dip each banana popsicle into the warmed peanut butter, using a spoon to scrape off excess peanut butter (or add more if necessary).
- Place the peanut butter dipped banana popsicles on a tray lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer for 30-45 minutes, until the peanut butter is hardened.
- Once the peanut butter is hardened, remove the banana popsicles from the freezer.
- Pour the chocolate chips into a microwave safe dish and microwave until melted, stirring occasionally to avoid burning the chocolate. If using oil, add that to the chocolate chips before melting.
- Dip each peanut butter coated banana popsicle into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to scrape off excess chocolate (or drizzle on additional melted chocolate as needed).
- Roll each banana popsicle in chopped peanuts and then return the popsicles to the tray lined with parchment paper.
- Place banana popsicles in the  freezer until the bananas are frozen, about 2-3 hours.
- Remove banana popsicles from the freezer once frozen and enjoy! If you don't enjoy frozen bananas, feel free to store them in the fridge instead.
