HONEY NUT BANANA SPLITS

4 ripe bananas 1 cup chunky peanut butter 2 pints vanilla ice cream ** 4 tablespoons honey, eyeball it 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 canister whipped cream ** 1 package (2-ounce pouch) chopped nut topping, available on baking aisle **

Peel and slice the banana down the center lengthwise and place in dessert boats or bowls. Place peanut butter in a small pan and melt gently over low heat. Scoop vanilla ice cream into bowls or boats on top of bananas, 2 scoops per sundae. Top 1 scoop of ice cream with melted peanut butter sauce, the other with a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of cinnamon, use about 1 tablespoon of honey per dessert. Garnish sundaes with whipped cream and chopped nut topping. Serves 4. **My variations are as follows: Instead of vanilla ice cream I sometimes use Butter Pecan ice cream and instead of the nut topping I will toast 1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped pecans and use over the top. Also, I don't usually add the whipped cream, as I prefer the 'pure' taste of the ice cream. _______________________________________
