Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup dark chocolate bits
1 T smooth peanut butter
4 bananas, peeled
4 slices prosciutto*

Directions:
Directions:
Heat a grill to medium.
Use an oil-soaked paper towel held with tongs to oil the grates.
Line a baking sheet or pan with waxed paper or kitchen parchment.
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring about 1 inch of water to a simmr.
Set a heat-safe bowl over the pan and turn off the heat.
In the bowl, combine the cream, chocolate and peanut butter.
Stir until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Set aside, but leave the bowl set over the water.
One at a time, wrap each banana in 1 slice of porsciutto. It is fine if the ends of the banana are exposed.
Gently press the ends of the slices against the banana to seal them in place.
Place the bananas on the grill, reduce the heat to low, cover the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning once or twice, until the prosciutto is crisped all around.
Place the grilled bananas on the prepared baking sheet or pan.
Use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate-peanut butter mixture over the bananas.
Place the pan in the freezer for 5 minutes - or just long enough to set the sauce.
If desired, the bananas can be served with extra sauce for dunking.

Personal Notes:
*Porsciutto [pro-shoot-o] is an Italian spiced ham.
If Elvis could pair banana and bacon on his peanut butter sandwiches, we can wrap a banana in prosciutto.
The author also suggests being generous with the drizzle...the ganache of peanut butter and chocolate.
