How to serve
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. You can also sprinkle some chopped nuts or shredded coconut on top for added crunch and texture. This dessert pairs well with a cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving to bring back the gooey chocolate texture. Avoid freezing, as the banana texture may change when thawed.
