Instructions: Peel the bananas; cut each crosswise: 10 halves.

Insert sticks in cut ends of bananas. Freeze at least 2 hours.

Just before serving, place chips and butter in small mixing bowl. Gently melt: microwave at 50% (medium) 2 to 4 minutes, or until most of the chips are shiny and soft; blend well.

Dip frozen bananas in chocolate to coat or spoon chocolate over bananas, allowing excess to drip off. Serve immediately.

Wrap and freeze extras.

NOTES : A treat for kids and adults.

Chocolate Bananas: there are reduced-fat chocolate chips on the market. They are pretty good and should work well. [c The
