Choco-Nana Pops
Makes 6 servings.
- 1 cup low-fat chocolate milk
- 1 ripe banana, peeled
- 2 Tbsp. chocolate syrup
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 6 (3 oz.) paper cups
- Aluminum foil
- 6 popsicle sticks
Pour milk into blender; cut banana into pieces and add to milk. Add chocolate syrup and vanilla. Blend on high speed until thick, about 1 minute. Divide mixture among the cups. Cover each cup with foil. Poke popsicle sticks through foil and into mixture. Freeze until firm. A quick dip in hot water lets you easily remove the cup from the popsicle, and the foil prevents dripping.
