Banana Monkey

  3.9 – 7 reviews  • Vodka Drinks Recipes

When I am hosting a large group of guests or need to bring something to a potluck, I always make this coconut sheet cake. Buttermilk is used in its preparation, which gives the dish its incredibly moist and wonderful texture. Depending on who or what I am preparing it for, I either cut it into tiny square nibbles or chunks the size of a conventional coconut cake.

Loved it. Just like at the resort.

Our resort called them Dirty Monkey’s also. I like a less sweet drink, so I cut back on the colada mix and freeze my banana first. It makes it taste like you added ice cream without all the extra calories.

Way too sweet! My husband was able to finish his,

A good drink for dessert 🙂 A way to cut down sweetness for anyone interested is to only use 3/4 cup pina colada mix and 1/4 cup cream or melted vanilla ice cream. It’s takes away some of the bold coconut flavor.
