Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- 1 cup frozen Cool Whip
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
- 1/2 cup pineapple chunks
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
- Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are fresh and properly prepared.
- Carefully slice each banana lengthwise down the center, creating two long halves. Place banana halves on serving plates or in shallow dessert dishes.
- Remove frozen Cool Whip from refrigerator and allow to slightly soften for easier spreading, approximately 2-3 minutes at room temperature.
- Gently spread softened Cool Whip along the length of each banana half, creating a smooth, even layer that covers most of the banana surface.
- Arrange sliced strawberries and pineapple chunks decoratively on top of the Cool Whip-covered bananas, distributing fruit evenly.
- Drizzle chocolate syrup in a zigzag pattern over the fruit and Cool Whip, ensuring attractive coverage.
- If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts over the top for added texture and flavor.
- Place prepared banana splits in the freezer for 5 minutes to allow toppings to set and Cool Whip to firm slightly.
- Remove from freezer, serve immediately, and enjoy your low-calorie dessert.
Tips
- • For the prettiest presentation, choose ripe but firm bananas without bruises • Allow Cool Whip to soften just slightly for easy spreading - but don't let it melt completely • Use a squeeze bottle or spoon for precise chocolate syrup drizzling • Chill your serving plates beforehand for extra elegance • For added nutrition, consider using sugar-free chocolate syrup • Experiment with different fruit combinations like blueberries or raspberries • Toast the optional nuts lightly for enhanced flavor before sprinkling • Serve immediately after removing from freezer to maintain the perfect texture
