    If I could rate this a 10 I would! What a incredible delicious dessert. The flavor of chocolate, pb and bananas is out of this world. I used the Nabisco Chocolate wafers and they worked perfect. My kids ate this up and told me it's one of the best treats they have had in awhile!! I did add 2 tbsp of cream to the chocolate chips and pb chip mixture. It was to clumpy and would not thin out to a drizzle consistency. So the cream works well! Thanks again for this wonderful treat.
    I took a photo and will post it as soon as my camera will download!
