Steps:
- Dipping decorations: granola, chopped nuts, sprinkles, jimmies, crushed cookies, and toasted coconut
- Line a sheet pan with waxed paper. Cut 1-inch off the end of each banana. Insert a popsicle stick into the cut-end of each banana, pushing the stick halfway in, leaving the other end exposed for use as a handle. Place the bananas on the sheet pan and freeze 1 hour.
- Melt the chocolate and butter in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally.
- Arrange the dipping decorations on several flat plates. Working with 1 banana at a time, dip it in the chocolate and turn to completely coat (spoon some on, if needed). Roll the dipped banana in the desired decorations, transfer to the sheet pan, and return to the freezer.
- Once frozen, store the bananas in an airtight container.
- Serving suggestion: To serve at a kid's party, paint a hunk of styrofoam and stick the banana handles in the top, so they stand upright.

Steps:
- Line a large baking sheet with wax paper.
- Peel bananas and carefully insert a popsicle stick into bottom end of each banana, halfway up stick. Arrange bananas on the baking sheet and freeze until firm but not frozen hard, about 1 hour. (You don't want the bananas so cold that the chocolate solidifies before you have a chance to add the peanut brittle.)
- Make Peanut Brittle While Bananas Are Freezing:
- Butter a rimmed baking sheet. Combine peanuts, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan, and bring slowly to a boil over medium heat, stirring.
- Position a candy thermometer so that it can rest on side of pan with bulb in mixture. Slowly boil, without stirring but tilting and swirling mixture in pan if it begins to color unevenly. Cook until deep golden and temperature reaches 295°F on thermometer, about 5 minutes.
- Remove pan from heat and stir in butter and baking soda (mixture will foam up). Immediately pour molten candy onto baking sheet. Let cool completely, 45 minutes to 1 hour, then pry from baking sheet, and finely chop.
- Assemble Bananas:
- Melt chocolate in a deep metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Remove bowl of chocolate from pan. Working with 1 banana at a time, set banana in bowl and coat most of banana evenly in chocolate by spooning it on and smoothing it with the back of the spoon.
- Immediately sprinkle peanut brittle over chocolate coating while chocolate is still wet, then return coated banana to wax paper-lined sheet, and let it set while coating remaining bananas. Refreeze bananas, if necessary, to firm up chocolate.

Steps:
- Peel and halve the bananas. Place a wooden stick into each half. Arrange in a shallow pan and cover halfway with rum. Let stand 10 minutes, flipping halfway through. Place on a baking sheet and place in the freezer. Freeze until frozen through and firm, at least 1 hour.
- Once the bananas are frozen, leave them in the freezer while preparing the chocolate and coconut. Toast the coconut in the microwave in 30 second increments, stirring occasionally, until evenly golden, about 2 minutes 30 seconds. Toss the flaky salt with the coconut.
- Combine chocolate and coconut oil and microwave until melted, about 1 minute. Lightly whisk until the chocolate and oil are combined.

Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your frozen chocolate bananas will be.
- Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better your frozen chocolate bananas will taste. Look for chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher).
- Get creative with toppings: You can add all sorts of toppings to your frozen chocolate bananas, such as nuts, seeds, coconut, or sprinkles. Get creative and have fun!
- Freeze the bananas for at least 2 hours before dipping them in chocolate: This will help the chocolate to set quickly and evenly.
- Dip the bananas in chocolate one at a time: This will help to prevent the chocolate from getting too thick and clumpy.
- Place the chocolate-dipped bananas on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet: This will help to prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Freeze the chocolate-dipped bananas for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will help the chocolate to set completely.
