- After the holidays y'all, our kids have gotten used
0:05
to eating a lot of sweets in the month of December.
0:10
Well, I'm trying to make the wee ones in our house
0:15
I'm trying to make them a little bit healthier
0:18
sweet stuff that they think they're getting.
0:21
So I've got a bag of milk chocolate
0:29
milk chocolate little nuggets
0:35
Now I'm gonna add a tablespoon of vegetable oil
0:39
and mix that in with our melted chocolate.
0:43
I'm gonna turn that off 'cause I don't want it to scorch.
0:48
Doesn't that look pretty,
0:49
Teresa? - [Teresa] Mhm.
0:50
- So what we are doing is frozen bananas
0:56
and I'm just gonna take this banana
1:01
cut the ends off and then I'm gonna cut it.
1:06
Let's try thirds, you know 'cause a little bit
1:11
of this will go a long way, don't you think?
1:20
Wanna make sure that vegetable oil is in there correctly.
1:33
I'm just gonna drop that in our chocolate.
1:41
And you better get up a piece of it now.
1:48
And then into our coconut
1:54
and in the freezer they go.
1:59
So like I said this is, they'll think this is sweet
2:04
but it's not as sweet as like gooey butter cake cookies
2:10
Or cream cheese cookies.
2:21
- [Teresa] They're really pretty.
2:22
- Mhm. They'll love eating them.
2:25
- [Paula] Teresa, they'll just be thawing.
2:28
Fun for 'em, you know?
2:31
Something a little different.
2:39
I'm probably going have to keep turning this on and off.
2:58
That last, that first one got a lot of chocolate on it
3:05
and I think it'll work better
3:06
if we don't let so much chocolate get on it
3:13
- [Teresa] Speak for yourself.
3:21
Just to, oops, just toss that in the coconut.
3:33
Get me a short enough stick.
3:40
Mm mm-mm, those are pretty.
3:43
I used to make these for my children
3:45
when they were little.
3:49
You know, the frozen bananas,
3:52
and encourage them to eat
3:59
I keep forgetting to change my stick out
4:03
'cause this stick is much sturdier.
4:09
So I'm gonna go ahead Teresa
4:11
and get these three in the freezer
4:16
'cause I don't want our bananas to get brown on us
4:18
although I don't think they will.
4:21
But after they freeze then I'll take each one of 'em
4:26
in like a saran wrap or something like that.
4:29
So when all the kids come, all I have to do
4:31
is just pull 'em out.
4:33
And I'm not gonna be able to taste this one
4:36
'cause it's gonna take a few hours, probably,
4:40
But just know it's good.
4:42
You know what else would be good here?
4:44
In the coconut is crushed nuts.
4:48
Cause I love a nut in everything I eat.
4:50
I love bananas and nuts, you know, together.
4:54
But right now these are going into the freezer.
4:57
So I'm gonna go ahead
4:58
and finish these off, the rest of the bananas off.
5:02
And like I said in January
5:05
got to get some good things in our kids, don't we?
5:09
I mean everything we've given 'em has been good, real good.
5:12
But now we need to think on the little healthier side.
5:16
So I'm gonna finish those
5:19
and I will see y'all on the next video.
5:23
Love and Best Dishes.
