| Ingredients |
Method |
|
Base: 100g (3½oz) butter 250g (9oz) digestive biscuits, crushed
Caramel: 175g (6oz) butter 85g (3oz) caster sugar 85g (3oz) dark brown soft sugar 397g can Carnation Condensed Milk
4 small bananas 284ml carton double cream, lightly whipped cocoa powder, for dusting
|
In a large saucepan, melt 100g (3½oz) of the butter and stir in the crushed biscuits. Press into the base and partly up the sides of a 19cm (7½in) loose-bottomed cake tin. Place in the fridge to chill while preparing the caramel.
To make the caramel, place the butter and the sugars in a non-stick saucepan over a low heat, stirring until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. Add the condensed milk and, stirring continuously, bring gently to the boil, to make a smooth, golden caramel. Spread the caramel over the biscuit base and chill for about 1½ hours.
Slice the bananas and arrange most of them over the caramel. Spread with whipped cream. Decorate with the remaining bananas and dust liberally with cocoa powder.
