Banana-filled candies
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You don't need to turn on the oven or spend a long time in the kitchen to make these candies—they can be prepared very quickly, and most importantly, they turn out just as good as store-bought ones. If you don't like bananas, you can replace them with nuts, dried fruits, or other fruits and berries. Serve chilled.
