Preparation Steps

• Line 2 large sheet trays with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese on medium-high speed using a hand-held mixer for 1 minute or until smooth.
• Add the finely crushed vanilla wafers and mashed banana to the bowl. Mix on medium speed until all ingredients are fully incorporated and no lumps remain. The mixture will be thick.
• Using a 1 ¼ inch (or 1 tablespoon) small cookie scoop, scoop out a leveled amount of banana cream bite mixture. Roll into a smooth ball in the palm of your hand, then place it onto one of the prepared sheet trays. Repeat until all the bites are scooped and rolled.
• Place the tray of rolled banana cream bites into the freezer for 20-25 minutes or until very firm.
• Melt the white chocolate discs in a medium bowl according to package directions. Stir until smooth.
• Remove the tray of banana cream bites from the freezer. Using a fork, gently lower a bite into the melted white chocolate and roll to coat entirely. Gently tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to allow excess melted white chocolate to drip back.
• Place the white chocolate-coated banana cream bite onto the second prepared sheet tray. Immediately sprinkle with crushed sweetened banana chips for garnish if desired. Repeat until all bites are coated and garnished.
• Place the tray of coated and garnished banana cream bites into the refrigerator for 5 minutes to allow the white chocolate coating to harden before transferring them to a platter to serve.
