Ingredients:
3 Fyffes bananas
100g mini-marshmallows
250g dark chocolate, chopped
21/2 tbsp sunflower oil
chocolate writing icing

Method:
First, peel & halve the bananas crossways. Insert a cake pop stick into the base of each banana. Put on a tray lined with nonstick baking paper & freeze for 1 hr. Meanwhile, prepare the eyeballs. Empty the mini-marshmallows into a bowl, & cut 6 in half crossways. Melt the dark chocolate with the sunflower oil in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water.

Dip each banana in the melted chocolate. Return to the tray & press in the halved marshmallows to make eyes. Freeze for 30 mins, until set. Microwave the remaining marshmallows on high for 20-30 secs, until just melted. Allow to cool so strands form, then wrap around each banana with a fork. Using the writing icing, dot an eye onto the marshmallow halves & enjoy.

Quick fruit brulée

In a large bowl, toss the sliced  bananas, the chopped nectarines or peaches, whichever you are using,  and the quartered strawberries with  one tablespoon of the caster sugar  and the lemon juice. Divide between individual bowls, adding a few blobs of the mascarpone or whipped cream, whichever you’re using, to each one.

Next, make the caramel to go on top. Place the 100g (3ƒoz) caster sugar in a small to medium saucepan on a medium heat and stir. It will begin to look lumpy and sandy, but don’t worry – just keep stirring. Eventually, it will become viscous, turning from golden to a rich caramel colour. Altogether, this can take up to about 12 minutes.

Using a spoon, carefully drizzle all the caramel over the mascarpone or whipped cream, whichever you’re  using, and over the fruit. Set aside for about five minutes, just to allow the caramel to cool and set hard, then serve.
