Ingredients

  • 200g cornstarch or Maria biscuits

  • 100g melted butter

  • 1 can of boiled condensed milk (dulce de leche)

  • 300ml of fresh cream

  • 3 ripe bananas

  • 1 tablespoon icing sugar (optional)

  • Chocolate powder or chocolate shavings to decorate (optional)

Directions

  • Start by preparing the banoffee base.
  • Grind the cookies in a food processor or place them in a heavy-duty plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin until you get a fine crumb texture.
  • In a bowl, mix the biscuit crumbs with the melted butter until a wet dough forms.
  • Press this dough into the bottom of a round shape with a removable bottom, covering the entire surface.
  • Take the mold to the refrigerator for approximately 30 minutes so that the base is firm.
  • Remove the can of condensed milk from its packaging and place it in a pot with enough water to completely cover it.
  • Place the pot over medium-high heat and simmer for about 2 hours, ensuring the can is covered with water at all times.
  • This will turn the condensed milk into a toffee cream.
  • After the 2 hours, turn off the heat and let the can cool completely before opening it.
  • Remove the banoffee base from the fridge and spread the cooked dulce de leche over it.
  • Peel the bananas and cut them into slices.
  • Arrange the banana slices over the dulce de leche.
  • In a bowl, beat the fresh cream with the icing sugar until you get firm peaks.
  • Spread the whipped cream over the bananas.
  • If desired, sprinkle chocolate powder or add chocolate shavings over the cream to decorate.
  • Place the banoffee in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until it is very cold.
