Frozen Banana Snickers
I’m obsessed with this recipe—it’s like having a frozen candy bar that’s layered with creamy banana, peanut butter, and a snappy chocolate coating, all topped off with the delightful crunch of peanuts. Is your mouth watering yet?
There’s something undeniably comforting about opening the freezer and finding a container of homemade treats waiting for you. These banana bites are familiar enough to remind you of childhood candy bars, but with a frozen, homemade touch that feels a little more special and a whole lot healthier! They’re the kind of treat you’ll want to share with friends… but also the kind you’ll want to keep all to yourself. (Trust me)
Peanut butter and chocolate—it’s one of the world’s greatest love stories. And when you bring frozen bananas into the mix, you’ve got a trifecta of sweet, creamy, crunchy bliss. These little gems are my go-to when I want something fun, frosty, and chocolatey without grabbing an actual candy bar or ice cream pop.
Plus, you can totally riff on them. Go with almond or cashew butter and dark chocolate for a fancy vibe, swirl in a little caramel if you’re feeling extra sweet, or toss on shredded coconut for a tropical touch.
I’ve been making frozen banana desserts for years (everything from banana “ice cream” to chocolate-dipped bites), but what I love most about these is the balance of fun and function. They’re quick to throw together, freezer-friendly, and portioned into little bites, which makes them perfect for after-school snacks, late-night cravings, or even a sweet pick-me-up between meetings.
Try these Frozen Banana Bites!

- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- ¼ cup chocolate chips, melted
- 1 tablespoon peanuts, chopped
Instructions

- Stash in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until frozen to freeze. Transfer to a freezer bag or container to free up space, and enjoy whenever you have a Snickers craving!

Is the 35 calories the count per slice?
Thanks for your wonderful recipes. Just had your eggplant Parmesan last night while Christmas decorating! Delicious!
Hi Julie! Yes–it’s 35 calories per each banana slice with the toppings. So happy you made (and enjoyed) the eggplant parm… that’s on repeat in my house! Hoping you love these Banana Snickers, too!
Do you know how many WW points they are? They look so yummy thank you.
Hi Patti, thanks for your question! Unfortunately, we don’t calculate WW points ourselves, but we’ve heard it’s pretty simple to figure out by plugging the key nutrition numbers (provided at the end of each of Joy’s recipes) into their online calculator or via their app. I hope that helps!
