Vegan Bon Bons

So it is officially hot and what better way to combat the hot weather with Bon Bons! A traditional Bon Bon is made of ice cream and chocolate and most of the time pretty high in fat. Well these little beauties are full of potassium and not as much fat!
Ingredients:
• 4 ripe bananas
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 2 cups dark chocolate chips or chunks
• 2 tbsp agave nectar
Directions:
In a double bolier start melting one cup of chocolate. To prepare the bananas blend in blender until smooth along with the vanilla and agave nectar then add the chocolate that has been melted, blend until an even color is reached. Freeze this mixture for two or more hours.
frozen mixture

Then with a either a spoon or melon baller make either full round or half rounds. You have to work quick you don't want the mixture to melt in your hands! Then place in the freezer again this time for 30 minutes or longer. Double boil the other cup of chocolate. Remove from heat and drop the rounds in the chocolate, I find it is best to use a fork to get an even coating and not to much clumping. The chocolate will make a hard shell around the mixture and they are ready to enjoy!
Refreshing and Yummy!
