Other Preparation Methods
    • Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut 4 bananas (through the skin) lengthwise, but not through the other side, forming a pocket. Pull pocket open slightly and place upright in 9- x 9-inch baking dish. Add 1 teaspoon each milk and white chocolate morsels and butterscotch morsels to each pocket. Top each with 5–6 mini marshmallows; bake 8–10 minutes until morsels have melted.
