Banoffee Pie


I think I've shared this recipe with Missy, but it is always a hit when I need to bring a dessert somewhere (among Brits and Americans). It's super easy, minus giving yourself a couple hours to be at home for the boiling of sweetened condensed milk. Oh, and it's not very healthy! :)

Banoffee Pie

1 pkg. of hobnobs (or enough graham crackers to cover the base of a 9x13 pan as hobnobs are hard to find in the US)

1 cup of melted butter

1 can of sweetened condensed milk

2 ripe bananas

Plenty of double or whipping cream

2 Cadbury flake bars or a Hershey type chocolate bar (This is just for presentation and would be grated or crumbled on the top of the whipping cream.)

In a pot boil the unopened can of sweetened condensed milk for ≈ 2 1/2 hours. Check occasionally and add water as needed so that the can is always covered with water. Meanwhile, crush the graham crackers with a glass (I put them in a ziploc and use a rolling pin) and mix with the melted butter. Press into serving dish and place in the refrigerator. Chill for at least an hour. When solidified, spread the boiled condensed milk on top of crust. Slice bananas and spread out on top of the milk layer. Whip the cream and then spread generously on the banana layer. Sprinkle top with grated Hershey bar or another chocolate candy of choice. Refrigerate until serving.

**Occasionally, you may find Dulce de Leche next to the sweetened condensed milk in the same can/packaging. This works too and obviously takes away from the boiling.

Good day! I know this is kinda off topic but
I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website?
I'm getting sick and tired of Wordpress because I've had problems with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
