This frees up a lot of your time in the kitchen, allowing you to bask in the sun even more before indulging in a well-deserved cool down.

Chocolatey Ice Cream Bars Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas
- 100g peanut butter
- 70g chopped peanuts
- 150g dark chocolate
- A pinch of salt
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Peel bananas, slice them small, and blend them together with peanut butter using an immersion blender until you get a creamy mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a square mold lined with parchment paper. Make sure to carefully smooth the paper on the sides to avoid wrinkles and ensure it sticks to the mixture.
- Place the mold in the freezer for at least four hours, preferably overnight, until the filling is solid.
- Break dark chocolate into pieces and melt it together with coconut oil over a water bath. Allow it to cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- Place a plate with parchment paper in the freezer to cool.
- Coarsely chop peanuts and add them to the chocolate mixture.
- Remove the ice cream mixture from the freezer and cut it into bars. Return it to the freezer to harden. The bars must be completely frozen before coating them with chocolate.
- Once the chocolate has reached room temperature, remove the bars and the cooled plate with parchment paper from the freezer.
- Coat each bar individually with the peanut-chocolate mixture and place them on the cooled parchment paper.
- Once all bars are covered in chocolate, return them to the freezer to set.
