http://blogs.babble.com/family-kitchen/2012/05/01/chocolate-banana-coconut-oil-spread/I was in heaven when I discovered how easy it is to craft creamy, velvety, spreads using coconut oil. And one of my new favorite recipes is this Chocolate Banana Coconut OIl Spread. Spread it on toast, crackers, muffins and more. And change up the recipe to make it interesting – add in nut butters or even my favorite – avocado! This is a good starter recipe to experiment with virgin coconut oil – an ingredient that may be really good for you! Get the recipe..
