Banana Stuffed Chocolate Dipped Frozen Marshmallows

I am really excited to share this recipe with everyone. It is super simple and fun to do with the kids. I wanted to do something different and thought about stuffed marshmallows. I have never done it before and this recipe is a bit messy but a lot of fun.These marshmallows will also help keep you cool it the summer heat.

What you will need:

1 banana
1 bag big marshmallows
2-3 chocolate bars
You will also need a skewer


Directions:

                                         
                                           First, you will want to cut the banana into 4 pieces.Then in half just like it  is in the picture.

                                          Cut them in half again lengthwise then cut those pieces in half.

               
                                            Next, take the skewer and make a hollow out the middle the best you can. This part gets a little sticky.

                                          Take one of the slices of banana and put it into the marshmallow. The banana might pop up out of the top a little but that's ok, the chocolate will cover it.

                                          This is what the marshmallows will look like after they are stuffed. Now, you pop them into the freezer and wait for about 15 to 30 minutes. While they are in the freezer melt the chocolate. You are going to melt the chocolate in 30 sec. intervals in the microwave until it is smooth. When the marshmallows are frozen dip them in the chocolate and any other topping you would like. Pop them back into the freezer until the chocolate is set and enjoy. Store them in the freezer.

Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Graham Cracker Balls

When I came up with this one my oven was not working. That was when I was bit by the baking bug once again. I had all kinds of ideas but I couldn't make any of them. So, I decided to try a no bake... something. I no idea what I was going to do. I had never done anything like this before.

Finally, I decided to try something with peanut butter and graham crackers. I wasn't sure how I would make them, though. Would they be cookies? Bars? Then I decided that since I wanted to try to make cake balls but was too chicken to try at the moment I would try making peanut butter graham cracker balls.

And, of course, before I could make them the oven was fixed, but I decided to go ahead and make them anyway. After all; I already had everythin on hand. Everything except the graham crackers; which ment that I had to wait until I went grocery shopping before I could get them.

So, here they are, they taste like crunchy peanut butter cups. Oh yeah, and they have a little surprise inside.
