I’m so excited to share one of our favorite desserts. We love making nice homemade cream, and my husband loves walnuts. My mom was a huge fan of California walnuts and always loved the combination of walnuts, chocolate, and banana. Then my father was crazy about chocolate covered bananas, so I took both of their favorites and turned it into Chocolate Covered Banana Walnut Cakes. Did I mention this recipe is no bake?

Growing up my mother was nuts about California Walnuts. She used them in dinner, dessert, sides, breakfast and even appetizers. They’re extremely versatile and a staple in many recipes! She made this delicious brie cheese with jam and walnuts! I remember just eating it without any bread, just the cheese and walnuts!
All of the ingredients in our Chocolate Covered Banana Walnut Cakes are so easy to find that you most likely have them in the house already. It’s so hot out here still (I’m ready for fall!), so I made a refreshing treat for my family. If you don’t have a silicone mold like this, you could easily just spread the chocolate onto parchment paper and then top just like I’ve done in the video.

This may look like a dessert, but it’s a great snack too! It’s filled with plant based omega-3 fatty acids, protein and fiber! Sometimes my daughter will just enjoy the top chocolate piece with the sprinkle of walnuts on it’s own. You could easily make these in advance and put into containers for a delicious treat to serve your guests.
