A delicious snack for those looking for a low-calorie peanut butter mixed up with some chocolate! :)

Put the banana, chopped up, in the food processor.

Add the peanut butter (for all of these steps, I used a scale for accuracy and easy clean-up). :)

Add the cocoa powder.

Process well until smooth.

Place in a jar in the refrigerator for at most a few days.  Eat, eat, eat! :)
