Quick Banoffee
It's time for something sweet and I'm craving a banoffee like crazy.. One of the best banoffees I've had is at Tartine on Draycott Avenue in London - it's just divine and I have it every time I'm in London.. (Thank you my Galva for taking me there years ago ;) The great thing about this recipe is that it's quick to make as I'm using a few short cuts here and there, but of course it's still as delicious..
Serves 6
- 6 digestive cookies, crumbled
- 1 can condensed milk
- 1/4 cup light cooking cream
- 4 TBL milk chocolate, shaved
- 4-6 bananas, sliced
- whipped cream
- pecans for garnish (optional)
In a saucepan bring the condensed milk to a slight boil.. Lower the heat to medium and stirring constantly, wait until the milk turns into a light brown toffee (this can take a little while).. Add the cooking cream and combine it well, then set it aside.. Now you're ready to assemble your decadent little banoffee in a ramekin or serving glass (just use as many of the following ingredients as you wish).. Start with the crumbled cookies, then the soft toffee, the banana slices, the whipped cream and finally the chocolate shavings (be generous- the more the yummier!) and finish with the pecans if you like.. Voila, a quick and delicious Banoffee :)

wow! Thank you D !!! I will try making that tomorrow :)
ReplyDeletesounds amazing! Quick question, does the toffee thicken and is it best that it cools completely before assembling dish or is it better if it's still a little warm?
ReplyDeleteYes it does thicken, just make sure to add the cooking cream while the toffee is warm so it blends well.. And you can assemble the banoffee either cooled or warm :)
