Nothing is more refreshing than ice cream for dessert or a snack. But sometimes, they lack a bit of indulgence... This is the perfect opportunity to bring out a classic frozen dessert: the banana split! An ultra-simple, quick, and slightly indulgent dessert, but hey, we all deserve a treat from time to time, right?! Plus, when you don't know what to do with your overly spotted bananas, the banana split is the ideal solution! Just sauté them for a few minutes in a pan, and your guests won't suspect a thing ;-)

Ingredients

• 1 banana
• 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream (or 1 vanilla, 1 strawberry, and 1 chocolate)
• chocolate sauce
• whipped cream
• flaked almonds
• 3 cherries

Preparation

• Cut the banana in half lengthwise, and quickly fry it in some butter.
• Place the banana halves in a banana split dish, on each side. Put 3 scoops of ice cream between the bananas, and pour some chocolate sauce on top.
• Add whipped cream, and sprinkle with flaked almonds. Finish with cherries.
  And there you have it, your banana split is ready!

Observations

The banana: you don't have to fry it and can use it raw.
The ice cream flavors: depending on the country, you can use three scoops of vanilla, or one of strawberry, one of vanilla, and one of chocolate.
