1
Peel the bananas and slice them into small circles. Place them on a flat plate or cutting board and put them in the freezer.
- Bananas: 2 pieces
2
While the banana slices are freezing, let's make the chocolate glaze. For this, break the milk chocolate into small pieces, place them in a small bowl, and melt. You can use a microwave or a double boiler.
- Milk chocolate: 100 g
3
Take a silicone mold for making candies and start coating the cavities with melted chocolate. A silicone brush works great for this. It's best to repeat the process several times to ensure the chocolate layer isn't too thin. But don't forget to put the mold in the fridge for about 10 minutes after each coating so that the mixture sets.
- Milk chocolate: 100 g

While preparing the chocolate 'shells', the bananas froze. We take them out of the freezer and make banana mousse. We place the frozen fruits in a food processor or use an immersion blender. We immediately pour the finished mousse into chocolate molds before it starts to melt.
- Bananas: 2 pieces
5
After the banana is successfully distributed into molds (not filling the mass to half a centimeter), we fill the remaining space with crushed peanuts and put the molds back in the freezer.
- Crushed roasted peanuts: 50 g

After a while, we take out the banana bonjour, let it 'rest' from the cold for a few minutes, and enjoy.
