Recipes for Free: One Bowl Strawberry Banana Split

By Calvin Eaton @glutenfreechef5

Nothing quite hits the spot on a hot summer day more than a simple ice cream sundae. Ice cream + summer is a no brainer and this A+mazing One Bowl Banana Split is no exception. I made mine with homemade strawberry frozen yogurt but any frozen confection or ice cream will do. The simple strawberry sauce was the icing on the cake and all that was missing was fresh whipping cream. I can’t wait to make this treat again.

1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup salted roasted peanuts
