Instruction

  • Turn to low and continue cooking for 20-30 minutes.
  • Remove and place crock pot contents on parchment paper to dry out. Be sure to let it cool for at least 15 minutes before adding the chocolate and banana chips.
  • Add in the banana chips and chocolate chips and mix together.
  • OPTION – cooking banana chips – You can add in your unsweetened banana chips to cook with the nuts/coconut, instead of adding later. But you will need to stir often and cook only 45 minutes.
