Memphis Banana Bites
- 1/4 cup creamy natural peanut butter
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups dried banana chips, about 72 chips
- Put the peanut butter and chocolate into a heatproof bowl and set over a bowl of barely simmering water, being sure the bowl does not touch the water.
- Heat the peanut butter and chocolate until just melted; stir until very smooth.
- Remove from the heat and cool until room temperature and the mixture has thickened.
- Transfer the chocolate mixture to a quart-sized resealable plastic bag or disposable pastry bag without a tip.
- Snip 1 corner with scissors to create a piping bag.
- Squeeze about 1/2 teaspoon of the chocolate mixture onto a banana chip and top with a second.
- Continue making banana chip sandwiches until the chocolate is used.
- Let the chocolate set completely at room temperature.
- Mini sandwiches can be stored covered at room temperature or refrigerated.
- They won't last long, though!
- Cook's Note: If the chocolate mixture gets too firm to pipe, warm it briefly over the simmering water in the bowl to loosen.
- If you have already transferred it to a piping bag, simply wrap your hands around the bag and hold it for a few minutes.
- The residual heat from your hands will soften the chocolate until it is easy to pipe.
