Introduction

I had tried the banoffee pie once at a restaurant and ever since I thought of making this at home. I found the richness of the banana with condensed milk to be very exciting. And the layered presentation to be very eye catching.

Serves : 2

Ingredients

Condensed milk – 1 Can

Digestive crackers/Marie biscuit – 5

Butter – 1/4 Cup

Whipped cream – 1/2 Cup

Banana – 2

Grated chocolate to decorate

I had refered to the below blog for the receipe and derived it to make a serving for 2.

Method of Preparation

Making of Dulce de Leche

Take a heavy bottomed deep and wide pan and fill it with 3/4 th water and boil it. Leave the unopened condensed milk can and boil it for 3 hours in simmer.
Ensure that the can is totally immersed in water throughout.
Longer the boiling duration, thicker the consistency of the dulce de Leche will be. Cool the container to room temperature and leave it in refrigerator till using it.

Base

Powder the biscuits and mix it with the butter. This is the base of the pie.
Whip the cream until we get soft and stiff peaks, either with hand or electric mixer.
