Ingredients

4 tablespoons Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
2 tablespoons water
Pinch salt
1/2 cup macadamia nuts in small pieces
1 cup dark candy coating
5 ripe medium bananas
Crème Chantilly
20 cherries
Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream

Directions

Combine sugar, water, and salt in a sauté pan. Bring to a boil.
Add macadamia pieces and toss into syrup. Cook a few minutes and until most of syrup is evaporated. Remove from heat. Stir macadamias until a white grainy coating develops on surface.
Turn heat back on to medium and toss macadamias until white coating caramelizes and they sound “dry”. Drop onto a plate and set aside.
Without peeling, cut bananas crosswise in 4-5 pieces and set upright on a platter. Using a melon baller or small spoon make a indention on surface to be filled later with ice cream.
Place banana pieces in freezer. Meanwhile melt chocolate candy coating according to manufacturer’s directions.
Remove peel from bananas and dip bottoms in chocolate and then place onto macadamia pieces.
Return to freezer for a brief time. Fill with small scoop ice cream and top with Crème Chantilly and a cherry.

Dixie Crystals Insight

NOTE: The ice cream is hiding under the Crème Chantilly in our photo. If you want to omit the ice cream, these Bite-Sized Banana Splits are equally as delicious.
