Dark Chocolate Banana No-Bakes!

Below is a healthier no-bake recipe that is great for using up overripe bananas and cutting the butter completely out of standard recipes.  The banana takes the place of the unhealthy added fat and makes for an extra dark chocolate treat that is quite tasty to pair with a cup of french press:-)

1 ripe banana, mashed well
