These handy popsicle molds are not necessary--some people make popsicles with paper cups and popsicle sticks. However, if you happen upon any at a garage sale or second-hand store, they are handy to have around.
Basically all you do is thoroughly mash bananas, peanut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla, and milk together; spoon into popsicle molds; and freeze.
Begging pardon--my amounts are approximated. I didn't measure anything; and I ended up with too much filling. The leftover filling I froze in an ordinary container for spoon eating. For six pops, three bananas probably would have been enough.
