Mexican-Style Chocolate Bananas

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 2 medium bananas, peeled and cut into 8 pieces each

Makes 4 (4-piece) Servings

1. Heat chocolate in a small skillet over low heat until melted, about 2 minutes. Add cinnamon and stir to combine.
2. Holding 1 piece of the banana by the end, dip it into the chocolate mixture to coat the other end. Place it, chocolate end up, on a clean plate. Repeat with remaining banana pieces, coating the pointed ends of the four "tip" pieces (gently reheat chocolate if necessary). Serve or place in the refirgerator until chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes.
