Banoffi Pie recipe

ingredients

Delicious caramel and banana pie, which is always popular with
the sweet-toothed.
275 g (10 oz) butter
250 g (9 oz) gingernut biscuits, crushed
150 g (6 oz) caster sugar
397 g can Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 bananas
150 ml (1/4 pint) double cream, whipped
plain chocolate, grated, to decorate

method

1. In a large saucepan, melt 100 g (4 oz) of the butter and stir in the crushed biscuits. Press into the base and sides of a 19 cm (7 1/2 inch) deep, loose-bottomed fluted, flan tin. Chill for 30 minutes.

2. Place the remaining butter and the sugar in a nonstick saucepan over a low heat, stirring until the butter melts. Add the Milk and bring gently to the boil, stirring continuously. Boil steadily for exactly 5 minutes, stirring frequently, to make a light golden caramel.

3. Pour over the biscuit base and chill for about 1 hour, until firm.

4. To serve, slice the bananas and arrange most of them over the caramel. Spread with the whipped cream. Decorate with the remaining bananas and grated chocolate.
