Peel and slice the bananas into bite-sized pieces and set them aside in a serving dish.
In a medium heatproof bowl, chop the dark chocolate into small pieces to ensure even melting.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over low to medium heat until it begins to gently simmer (do not boil).
Reduce the heat to low and add the chopped dark chocolate to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the chocolate has melted completely and the mixture is silky smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and brown sugar to the melted chocolate mixture and stir well to combine.
Pour the melted chocolate into a fondue pot or a heatproof serving bowl to keep it warm while serving.
Arrange the bananas and optional dippers (such as strawberries, marshmallows, or pretzels) around the chocolate fondue for easy dipping.
Serve immediately. Use skewers or fondue forks to dip the bananas and other treats into the warm chocolate. Enjoy!
