With the release of the new 4th season of Arrested Development on Netflix, I thought it only fitting to create some Chocolate Dipped Banana Cream Pops to celebrate!
After all, there’s always money in the banana stand… *wink-wink*
My husband and I are watching the first three seasons over again before we start the 4th season; so naturally every night I am laughing my head off. Classic.
These Chocolate Dipped Banana Cream Pops are so much better than just a regular old banana covered in chocolate and nuts. I blended bananas with cream, a little sugar and some vanilla to make an ultra creamy banana ice cream base. Then I used my simple 2 Ingredient Magic Shell to dip the banana cream pops in a thin layer of luscious chocolate.
They definitely take the Chocolate Covered Bananas at Disneyland (or the Bluth Family Banana Stand) to the next level.
If you haven’t watched Arrested Development yet, do it.
And if you haven’t had a Chocolate Dipped Banana Cream Pop yet, do it now.
You wont regret either.
Chocolate Dipped Banana Cream Pops
Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Popsicle Mold
- 2 Ingredient Magic Shell
- 1/2 cup peanuts
Instructions
- Put bananas, heavy cream, milk, sugar and vanilla in the blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour into your popsicle mold and place in freezer.
- Once frozen, remove from mold and dip into the chocolate Magic Shell, then quickly sprinkle with chopped nuts. Enjoy right away, or place in plastic bags and store in freezer until ready to enjoy.
This looks absoulutely amazing. Just one question – When you dip the icecream in the chocolate/coconut oil mixture, is it then room temperature or did you heat it slightly beforehand?
Hi Anne! Yes, you’ll want the chocolate mixture to be slightly heated, but not too hot. As long as it’s above 80 degrees you should be able to dip it. 🙂
These look so amazing! Love fun popsicles!
They’re so delicious, you’ll love them! 🙂
I loved banana fudge pops in elementary school. They no longer make them but I think this will be an awesome substitute.
You’ll love these! 🙂
What’s up colleagues, how is everything, and what you want to
say on the topic of this article, in my view its truly amazing designed
for me.
ok how do u make heavy cream
Hi Linda, Heavy Cream is actually an ingredient that you would find in your dairy isle, near the milk. It’s also referred to as whipping cream, or just cream. 🙂
Выглядит очень вкусно
Dairy free option??
Good question Connie! I’m not an expert on how to make dairy free modifications, but I think maybe using full fat coconut milk might do the trick. It would obviously change the taste a little bit, but I don’t see anything wrong with a Banana and Coconut Cream Pop! 🙂 Let me know if you try it out and how it works!
Thanks! I was thinking the same thing.
You rock. That is all. 🙂
Yum! Perfect for summer!
Should I be using very ripe bananas (the ones that are going spotty) to maximize the banana flavour or will a regular ripe one do the trick?
Hi Jan, either one will work. I used regular ripe, and it still tasted great! 🙂
So, they went into the freezer about an hour ago and I’m already super excited! That mixture is delish!
Yum!! These look fantastic!! What a amazing treat for a hot afternoon!! Love it 🙂

Ok, I think I’m the only person alive that hasn’t seen Arrested Development. I need to get on it! And I need to get some of these banana pops. They look perfect!
These by far are the best chocolate banana cream pops! I started making them last summer and my grandkids and I love them.
These look amazing!
