Banana Split Pops

If you love banana cream pudding, give these a try. The base is simple to make, and the finished pop is adorable. Cue the oohs and aahs.

• 135g pkg. instant banana-cream pudding
• 2 cups chocolate chips
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp cream
• 1 bowl of colourful sprinkles (for dipping)
• 1 can whipped cream
• Maraschino cherries

Cook the instant pudding according to the package directions. Pour the cooked pudding into your popsicle moulds, and insert the sticks. Freeze until solid.

In the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the butter and cream in a tall glass. When the chocolate is smooth and glossy, unmould the frozen pops and, one at a time, dip them halfway into the melted chocolate. Hold the pops upright, allowing the chocolate to drip down their sides, and then roll the tips in sprinkles. Pipe each with a swirl of whipped cream, and top with a cherry.
