Ingredients
3 bananas
1/4 lb cored pineapple
6 strawberries
1 cup dipping chocolate
1/4 cup chopped peanuts
12 popsicle sticks or skewers
Instructions
Prepare the Fruit:
Cut the strawberries in half.
Cut the bananas and pineapple into pieces roughly the same size as the strawberry halves.
Assemble the Bites:
Thread a piece of pineapple onto each popsicle stick or skewer, followed by a piece of banana, and finally a strawberry half.
Place the assembled fruit bites in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill.
Prepare for Dipping:
Line a tray with wax paper or parchment paper.
Place the chopped nuts on a small plate for dipping.
Melt the Chocolate:
Melt the dipping chocolate by heating it in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Dip the Fruit:
Dip the cold fruit bites into the melted chocolate, then immediately into the chopped nuts.
Place the dipped fruit bites on the prepared tray.
Set and Serve:
Allow the chocolate to set before serving. You can place the tray in the refrigerator to speed up the process if desired.
