This is a wonderful simple dessert to serve at the end of a barbecue. Even the kids love these bananas!

4 bananas
2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 ounces miniature marshmallows
Whipped cream or ice cream, optional

Preheat barbecue Grill.

Using a sharp knife, make a slit along most of the length of the unpeeled banana skin and almost through the bananas.

Push chocolate chips and marshmallows into the slits; push the bananas closed. Wrap each banana tightly in aluminum foil.

Place the banana packets on the grill rack and cook for 10 minutes, turning the packets after 5 minutes. Remove from the grill. Carefully open the banana packets and remove the cooked bananas from the aluminum foil. NOTE: You can serve in the aluminum foil.

If desired, serve with either whipped cream or ice cream. Serve with a teaspoon, to scoop out the cooked banana flesh covered in melted chocolate.

Make 4 servings.
