BANANA SPLIT PUDDING BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray or very lightly grease with oil.

• Stir with a heatproof spatula until completely melted, then remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of mashed banana, the oil, and the sugar. Use a handheld mixer to beat everything together for about a minute. If you don't have a mixer, use a strong fork and mix for about 3 minutes.
• Mix in the vanilla and melted chocolate.
• In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Add this to the banana mixture in batches, mixing with the hand mixer as you go along. Mix for about 1 minute more.
• PREPARE THE BANANA TOPPING: In a small bowl, combine all topping ingredients and mix with the hand mixer (remember to rinse the beaters off first) for about a minute.
• TO ASSEMBLE AND BAKE THE BROWNIES: Spread the brownie batter evenly into baking pan. Pour the banana topping over that and spread evenly.
• Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
• After about 15 minutes, move it to the fridge until fully cooled.
• Cut into twelve squares, place a few slices of banana on top of each portion, and serve.
