Banoffee!

A friend told me about Banoffee a couple of months ago. Since then I have made three Banoffee pies and they are just too delicious not to share! Yesterday/today, I made one for my friend Anna, since she was finally in town for a short visit. Here are the way too easy instructions for this dangerously delicious pie.

You will need:

• Graham cracker crust (home made or store bought)
• 3-4 large bananas
• 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups of heavy whipping cream
• 2 tsp of sugar
• 1 tsp of cocoa powder

Step one: Clean dinner mess out of stock pot.

 Step two: Remove label(s) from can(s) of sweetened condensed milk.

  

Step three: Boil for 2.5-3 hrs. MAKE SURE TO KEEP THE CANS COVERED WITH WATER!!!!!

Step four: When boil time is nearly complete cut the bananas into pie crust.

Step five: After allowing can(s) to cool for about a half hour, remove lid and stir lumps out with a butter knife.

Step six: Gently stir toffee into the bananas.

 Step seven: Measure about two cups of heavy whipping cream into a large bowl.

Step eight: Add in 1-2 tsp of sugar.

 Step nine: Beat on high until whipping cream becomes whipped cream!

  

Step ten: Spread whipped cream over pie, garnish with cocoa powder or chocolate shavings... Banoffee!

 The really beautiful thing about this recipe is you can complicate it for organic or taste's sake, like making your own crust. Orrrr you can simplify it and make it in mere minutes with a pre-made crust, a can of Dulce de Leche (in the Mexican Food Aisle at my grocery store), and Cool Whip! The choice is yours!
