Chocolate Banana Pops

• 1 banana per child
• 1 can Hershey's chocolate syrup
• Chopped walnuts or pecans
• Popsicle sticks

Pour chocolate syrup into a large bowl. Dip the top of the banana into the syrup.

Cover the bottom of a large cake pan with a layer of finely chopped nuts. Gently roll the chocolate covered banana in the nuts to cover the top.

Lay bananas on a cookie sheet and chill. Serve when chocolate is slightly hardened.

Fruit Beastie Pudding:

• All of the above, plus
• Package of instant vanilla pudding mix
• Assortment of fruits:
  • Maraschino cherries or strawberries
  • Fresh blueberries or raisins
  • Fresh kiwi

Mix and chill the vanilla pudding. Pour into bowls, filling about halfway.

Stick the bananas halves into the pudding bowls, at the top of the bowl, with the tops point away from eachother. These are your beastie's horns. Peel and slice a kiwi into thin slices, then cut in half. Place two of these just below each horn. These are your beastie's eyebrows. Below the eyebrows, place two blueberries or raisins. For the nose, a maraschino cherry or strawberry is placed in the center. If you have room, make a mouth using a row of small blueberries.

Chill and eat!
