You can also customize the way you serve this dessert. I usually serve the ice-cream on the side as my family likes it that way. But you can place them inside the banana split or on top of the melted chocolate. If you are planning to take these for pool parties, you can add the melted chocolate and let it set. Then pack the banana with chocolate. Before serving, you can add the ice-cream and crushed nuts. If you are using store-bought sauces, you can quickly assemble them on the venue too.

Recipe Notes:
You can adjust the chocolate amount according to your preference. Instead of melted chocolate, you can use chocolate syrup or caramel sauce. If you have nut allergies, you can skip the nuts and add cherries or dried fruits instead. Vanilla ice-cream pairs well with banana and chocolate, but you can use other ice-creams of your choice. I love caramel ice-cream too. If you are planning to take these for pool parties, you can add the melted chocolate and let it set. Then pack the banana with chocolate. Before serving, you can add the ice-cream and crushed nuts. If you are using small bananas, you don’t need to cut the bananas into half.
