Select pretty, yellow bananas. Cut a 1 inch wide strip from the concave length to form "boats". Begin 1 inch from each end. Scoop out pulp with spoon in chunks. Mix chunks with equal portion of Cool Whip. Place 3 mounds in each "boat". Top as desired. (Optional: May omit "boats" and serve in parfait cups.)
