Ingredients

  • For the Spicy Chocolate Sauce
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cinnamon stick
  • 1 tablespoon agave syrup
  • 1 pinch ground black cardamom
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder or ancho passila
  • 1 2-inch piece of orange peel
  • quick shake of cayenne pepper
  • 4 ounces semi-sweet organic chocolate chips
  • To Assemble the Monkey Sticks
  • ripe bananas - each banana cut into thirds
  • Spicy Chocolate sauce
  • wooden kebob sticks, cut in half, or wooden popsicle sticks
  • well chopped nuts of your choice, or candy sprinkles, or appropriate candy bits

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat 1 cup of the heavy cream, agave syrup, and the spices in a medium saucepan. Bring to a quick simmer. Add the orange peel, the cinnamon stick, and the cayenne pepper. Reduce heat and cook for a few more minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the cream to sit in order to be infused for an hour.
  2. 2
    Heat the chocolate chips in a bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water. When the chocolate is melted, gradually add the infused cream, stirring constantly.
  3. 3
    Cut the bananas into thirds, and stick a popsicle or kebob stick in the middle of each banana piece. Place on a parchment lined dish and put into the freezer for 15 minutes.
  4. 4
    Dip each banana into the chocolate sauce, covering throughly. Then, roll into the topping of your choice. (In the photo, I used pistachio nuts, cashews, and sugar sprinkles.
  5. 5
    Place back in the freezer for 30 minutes. Serve!
