Directions for date caramel:

1. Place dates, salt, and water into a high speed blender or food processor. Process until smooth and no chunks of dates remain, about ~1-2 minutes total. You will need to intermittently pause the processing and scrape the sides to get the mixture well incorporated. Use slightly more or less water depending on the size of your dates to achieve proper consistency. The end result should be thick, like honey.
2. Store in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for longer.

Directions for the banana split:

1. Peel banana, then cut in half lengthwise and place on a plate.
2. Add scoops of night food ice cream to fill the length of the banana
3. Top with 3 small dollops of date caramel, then the shredded coconut, dark chocolate chips, crushed walnuts, and sliced berries.
4. Add additional toppings if desired, then enjoy immediately.

**Variations/notes: Many ingredients can be substituted in this recipe. Use any alternative flavor of Nightfood as desired, or substitute the nuts, berries, and coconut according to what you have on hand and what you like best.
