Chunky Monkey Brownies

Are you a fan of chocolate and banana desserts? We are! During the summer months, we will enjoy Frozen Chocolate Dipped Bananas frequently. The flavors together are just perfect. Last week, I finally splurged and bought myself a small pint of Ben & Jerry’s Chunk Monkey Ice Cream. I am not sure why but the name of this expensive ice cream made me smile and was just what I needed after a long day, ha ha.

These Chunky Monkey Brownies were totally inspired by my ice cream. As I was enjoying each bite, I kept trying to think of the perfect dessert with chocolate and banana. Obviously with all that brainstorming, I decided on a brownie. I knew I was wanting a icing that was more like banana cream so why not use banana pudding to kick the banana flavor in overdrive?  The chocolate and the walnuts were obvious so we added them in too!

These were by far my favorite brownies lately. The Neapolitan Brownies I made for my friends birthday were a VERY close second though. I guess I am having a brownie addiction this week, ha ha!
