1 dark chocolate bar
2 tbsp butter
1 package banana pudding
2 cups half and half
2 whole bananas
¼ cup mini chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350° F. Press unbaked crust into pie plate. Poke holes in the bottom with a fork, weigh down with pie weights, and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden. Set aside and allow to cool. In a saucepan add chocolate and butter. Turn heat to medium-low and stir until chocolate is melted. Whisk pudding and half and half in a mixing bowl. Pour melted chocolate into the bottom of the cooled pie crust and spread evenly. Slice two bananas and place slices on top of the melted chocolate, covering the entire bottom of the pie. Spread pudding over bananas. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. Serve chilled.
