Banana Pops

These are one of our favorite summer desserts but they're a little complicated to make (and take quite a bit of time) so I included step-by-step pictures of the process.
You'll need bananas, popcicle sticks (or wood skewers if that's what you have) and a baking sheet. 

Peel the bananas and cut in half.  Place on the baking sheet.

Invite your 4 year old to push the sticks into the bananas.

Pop those suckers into the freezer for a few hours.

Let yourself have a self-satisfied grin at a job well done!

You can make these babies extra special by dipping them in melted chocolate before freezing.
