Cookie Dough Chocolate Banana Fudge

Ingredients

• 2 very ripe bananas
• 2 Tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2/3 cup vegan dark chocolate, or vegan semi sweet chocolate chips
• 1 batch Cookie dough

Steps

1. Shape the cookie dough into balls and set them aside.
2. Mash the bananas very thoroughly, or blend them.
3. Cook the mashed banana and maple syrup together in a pan for 4 to 5 minutes, until bubbly.
4. Take the pan off the heat and add the vanilla and chocolate. Let stand for a minute before whisking until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Taste carefully; mix in ground sugar if you prefer it sweeter. None may be needed with semi sweet chocolate chips.
5. After dropping the batter onto parchment, spread it with a spatula. Set the cookie dough balls on the batter and press them in.
6. Freeze for an hour or longer, then slice and serve. Keep stored in the freezer, allowing it to stand for 5 minutes before serving.
7. For a variation, mix gingerbread spices, peppermint, or bourbon into the melted chocolate.
