Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Base:

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ tsp baking soda

¼ tsp salt

½ cup unsalted butter, softened

½ cup brown sugar, packed

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup rolled oats

½ cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)

For the Banana Layer:

2 ripe bananas

1 tbsp lemon juice

For the Chocolate Coating:

1 cup dark chocolate chips

2 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoothness)

Sprinkles, chopped nuts, or shredded coconut (for decoration, optional)

Instructions
 

Make the Cookie Dough:

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until combined. Stir in the rolled oats and chocolate chips.

      Shape the Cookies:

        Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with your hand.

          Bake the Cookies:

            Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and the centers are set. Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.

              Prepare the Banana Layer:

                While the cookies cool, mash the ripe bananas in a bowl and add the lemon juice to prevent browning. Mix until smooth but still a bit chunky.

                  Assemble the Pops:

                    Take one cookie and spread a generous layer of the banana mixture on top. Place another cookie on top to create a sandwich. Press gently to seal. Repeat with remaining cookies and banana mixture.

                      Freeze the Cookie Pops:

                        Insert a popsicle stick through the center of each cookie sandwich. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until completely firm.

                          Prepare the Chocolate Coating:

                            In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is melted and smooth.

                              Coat the Pops:

                                Remove the cookie pops from the freezer. Dip each pop in the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off. Quickly sprinkle with your choice of decorations (sprinkles, nuts, or coconut) before the chocolate sets.

                                  Final Freeze:

                                    Place the chocolate-coated pops back in the freezer for an additional 30 minutes to ensure the coating solidifies.

                                      Serve and Enjoy:

                                        Once the chocolate has hardened, your Frozen Chocolate Banana Cookie Pops are ready to enjoy! Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks.
