Sunnys Easy Pb And J Frozen Bananas Recipes

SUNNY'S BANANA PUDDING "JAR-FAITS"

Steps:

• In a large bowl or stand mixer, add the peanut butter and honey and blend. Add the whipped topping and fold until combined.
• Layer the ingredients evenly in 6 canning jars in this order: wafers, bananas, pudding, wafers, bananas, peanut butter mixture, then repeat. Reserve a few banana slices and use them to top each jar. Refrigerate at least 4 hours until set and chilled. Serve cold.

SUNNY'S CHOCOLATE PB AND J SHAKE

Steps:

• In a blender, add the ice cream, peanut butter and milk and blend until smooth. Drizzle jam on the inside of 2 glasses. Pour the shake in and top with whipped cream, chopped peanuts, more jam and a cherry.

SUNNY'S QUICK PB AND J ICE CREAM COOKIES

Steps:

• Put the chopped peanuts on a small plate. Spread the flat side of each peanut butter cookie with jelly. Set the ice cream pints on their sides and use a serrated knife to slice right through the cartons, creating ice cream discs 1 to 2 inches thick. Place 1 disc (peel away the carton) on the jellied flat side of a cookie, then close the sandwich with another cookie, jelly side on the inside as well. Roll the exposed ice cream edge in the chopped peanuts. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately.

SUNNY'S EASY PB&J SWIRL BARS

Steps:

• Make the crust. Spray an 8-inch square metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line with parchment paper, allowing the parchment to overhang the edges of the pan. Spray again and set aside.
• In a food processor, pulse the crackers, brown sugar and butter until combined and it resembles wet sand. Remove and press into the bottom of the pan. Refrigerate for an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Make the PB layer: In a stand mixer or with a hand-held mixer, beat the peanut butter, brown sugar and butter in a bowl until smooth. Remove the pan from the refrigerator and spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the bottom layer.
• Add the jelly swirl. Drop about 9 dollops of the jam around the pan. Use a skewer or butter knife and drag it through the jam and peanut butter to make swirls.
• Bake until set, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely, then remove from the pan and cut into bars the size of your choosing.

SUNNY'S EASY BANANAS FOSTER

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir in the orange juice, brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice and bring to a simmer. Slice the bananas and add to the skillet, stirring to coat. Saute until the bananas are tender and the sauce coats them, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the bourbon. Light the liquid in the skillet with a click lighter and flambe, allowing the flames to subside. Turn on the heat and cook about 1 minute. Serve in bowls, warm, over vanilla ice cream with a sprinkle of nuts.

FROZEN BANANAS

Steps:

• Insert wooden stick into each banana piece. Arrange on parchment-lined sheet pan and freeze for 20 minutes.
• Place chips and morsels into separate bowls. Microwave on medium heat until melted, about 60 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds.
• Remove bananas from freezer and dip by alternating between melted chocolate and butterscotch. Immediately roll them in chopped nuts or sprinkles. Freeze until frozen solid, about 1 hour.
