- 1 banana (ripe)

- About 2 slices of cheese (sliced or mozzarella)
Sweet Toppings- A bit of chocolate (dark or milk, finely chopped)
- A bit of chocolate (dark or milk, finely chopped)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Have leftover chocolate or bananas that are about to go bad? Don’t worry! Transform them into a sweet and delicious toast that’s perfect for any occasion.
Step 2
Today, we’re using thick-sliced bread (tong sikppang), which stays wonderfully moist for longer. This type of bread makes the toast extra soft and delightful.
Step 3
Slice one ripe banana into bite-sized pieces and arrange them evenly over the bread slices. The banana will add sweetness and a creamy texture.
Step 4
Finely chop the chocolate. It’s crucial to chop it small, as larger pieces may not melt properly. (Dark chocolate offers a richer flavor, while milk chocolate provides extra sweetness.)
Step 5
Sprinkle the chopped chocolate generously over the bananas. Then, add a slice of cheese and a sprinkle of finely chopped nuts. If you have picky eaters who avoid nuts, this is a great way to sneak them in!
Step 6
Add another slice of cheese for an even richer flavor. If you don’t have chocolate, chocolate spread works as a substitute. For an extra nutty flavor, spread a thin layer of peanut butter on one side of the bread – though this will increase the calorie count!
Step 7
Melt a small piece of butter in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Butter adds a wonderful aroma and enhances the toast’s flavor.
Step 8
Keep the heat very low. If the heat is too high, the bread might burn before the filling melts. Pay close attention to the heat control.
Step 9
Place the prepared toast in the pan and gently press down with a spatula. Cover with a lid and cook over low heat until the chocolate and cheese are completely melted and gooey. This creates a visually appealing and delicious masterpiece. (Alternatively, you can bake it in a preheated oven at 180°C / 350°F for 5-7 minutes.)
