Banana Cream Cocoa | Hot Drink Treat Recipe

March 17, 2010 By Laura 5 Comments

If you love chocolate and bananas, you just might love this hot sweet treat, in a cup:  Banana Cream Cocoa.

banana-cream-cocoa-1

I do love chocolate. Don’t all women?  I also love bananas. But somewhere along the way, I saw a pattern, and realized eating raw bananas is not a good idea for me. My stomach goes to hell and back, trying to digest it.  Lots of pain involved. (Does anyone else have this issue?).  But, I can eat bananas cooked in all other forms:  banana bread, banana nut crunch, banana pancakes, Banana Hannah, (just kidding.  Wasn’t me. Swear.)  And once upon a time, I loved eating chocolate covered bananas. Oh how I loved those.  So Banana Cream Cocoa sounded good to me!  We made some yesterday.

banana-cream-cocoa-2 Participating Ingredients:

  • 3 cups milk
  • 1 chopped banana
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 4 oz. chopped milk chocolate*
  • 1 oz. chopped bittersweet chocolate*

*This time, we chopped chocolate bars with a serrated blade knife.

3_milk Bring 3 cups of milk…..

4_banana
1 chopped banana….
–

5_sugar
2  Tbsp. sugar….
–

6_cinnamon
…and 1 tsp. of cinnamon to a boil, whisking frequently.
–

7_chocolate
Add 4 oz. chopped milk chocolate, and 1 oz. bittersweet chocolate….
–

banana-cream-cocoa-3 ….and mix some more.

…until all of the chocolate is melted nicely.

Remove from heat, and let sit 1 minute.

10_pour

Pour mixture into blender….
–

11_puree
….and puree.
–

banana-cream-cocoa Divide into 4 mugs, and go bananas!

Note:  My kids and husband loved it, but a couple of them did think it was very strong in banana, and maybe cinnamon, so you may want to cut those amounts-but of course it’s a personal taste.  I found, when it cooled down enough in my mug, it was delicious!
