Tropical Banana Splits Recipes

TROPICAL BANANA SPLITS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup cream just to a boil. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Let stand 2 to 3 minutes; stir to combine.
• In a medium bowl, whip remaining 1/2 cup cream with sugar until soft peaks form. Set aside.
• Peel bananas, and split lengthwise; divide among 4 sundae dishes. Top with a scoop (1/4 cup) each of mango, coconut, and raspberry sorbets. Drizzle each sundae with chocolate sauce; top with whipped cream, nuts, and a cherry. Serve immediately.

TINY BANANA SPLITS

Steps:

• Halve bananas, then cut into quarters. Place 3 segments into each serving dish. Using a melon baler to achieve "tiny" scoops, place a scoop of each flavor of ice cream on top of the banana. (Ice cream may be scooped ahead of time and refrozen. This will help the ice cream to hold its shape.)
• Drizzle a little bit of each sauce over the ice cream and sprinkle with crushed nuts, whipped cream, and top it off with a maraschino cherry.
• Break up or chop the chocolate and place it in a bowl. Melt in microwave on low power, stirring every 30 seconds. Serve immediately.
• Using a fork, mash strawberries with sugar in a bowl until well mixed. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Puree pineapple and sugar in food processor or blender until slightly chunky. Refrigerate until ready to use.
