Grilled Bananas w/Caramel Sauce

My BBC Dessert tonight was fantastic and it only takes about 2 minutes or less to make. Simply preheat a nonstick "dry" (no oil or water) pan over medium heat. Add your banana that is sliced in half vertically and cook until blackened. While your banana cooks, heat 1 Tbsp of your favorite caramel sauce in the microwave for 10 seconds. Remove your banana and top with caramel.

This entire dessert is only 3 Weight Watchers Points - yahoo! I actually debated licking the plate.

The Husband tested out the 3 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake that I made for him today.

Topped with some whipped cream that was left over from my guest post recipe!

The verdict ~ he liked it! I did try a small bite and it reminded me of a dark chocolate vitatop but with the density of a brownie/cake almost. I cooked it in a bowl instead of a cup because I didn't want it ot overflow. It was fun to make a cake in 4 minutes flat!

    Your bananas came out beautifully! Billy and I both decided that even just a WARM banana is a yummy treat on its own...so good. I was kind of hankering to put peanut butter on mine!

    Chocolate cake looks fantastic.

    that banana business is bangin! yummm. i would have licked the plate. just sayin! and the choc cake looks better than i even imagined! i for sure need to whip it up. so simple. i bet i could add some protein powder to it too, i used to make something similar in the microwave ("protein brownie") but it was a little stale, this looks really moist!

    Anne ~ The banana dessert was seriously amazing - I am definitely having that ALL over again.

    Jenny ~ Yup - it's good - you NEED to try one - only 4 minutes total from start to finish....add peanut butter to it and YUM!

    Angelea ~ ohhhh peanut butter or almond butter would have been a fantastic addition.

    K ~ You are probably right :)

    Janetha ~ You can put caramel on anything and I'd probably lick the plate too. The cake was so easy to make and I think better when eaten warm all chocolately, melty and soft.

    Wow, I must try that banana dessert - it looks incredible! And it doesn't stick to the pan?

    Fatfighter ~ I used a nonstick pan and the banana came right out. I wonder how it would turn out with nonstick spray - maybe crispy? Hmmmm...it would be worth a try!
