Since this is my very first "official" post, I thought, what BETTER way to start than with a recipe!!!!!
Ok, first I need to tell you a short story. I received this AWESOME Zoku for Christmas one year. I had seen it in a store and just HAD TO HAVE IT....and I got it. This things sat in my freezer for FOUR years untouched and collecting random coffee grinds and who knows what else, until one day I had an emergency....yes that's right...a popscicle emergency. I only had TWO popscicles left...but, I have THREE children...the WORLD was coming to an END! HA, well...you would have thought anyway. So I whipped that thing out just as fast as I could, poured some limeade into it and SEVEN minutes later....yes you heard that right...SEVEN MINUTES...I had 3 perfect little limeade pops. MOMMY SAVED THE DAAAAAAAY! Ok, so maybe it wasn't THAT dramatic, but you know how kids are. Anyways, I haven't STOPPED using that thing ever since.
We had an early dinner today, so I sent the kids outside to play in the CRAZY Texas heat...running through the sprinklers of course, while mommy concocted some kind of yummy frozen treat for the little darlings. I have been obsessed with all things chocolate, peanut butter, and bananas these days....especially when they become ONE with each other...there is nothing else better than that really, is there?!?!?! I grabbed all those ingredients and went to town, thus creating the Chocolate PB2 Banana Pops!!!! Dun-dun-dun-DUN!!!!! So, without further adieu....the recipe:
Chocolate PB2 Banana Pops

1. Combine all ingredients and blend well in a blender.
2. Pour into the molds.
3. FREEZE!!!!

Feel free to use any type of Popsicle mold...you will just have to wait more than SEVEN minutes and disappoint some little children. Just kidding!
