When you start out, you think you’re making these for the kids. Then you taste one and forget that, the plate is just for you 🙂 Honestly, these are good enough to serve as dessert at an adult get together. Everyone loves the simplicity and the great banana and chocolate flavor. These disappear very quickly 😉
