Banoffee pie is one of the best desserts in the world, and I decided to make it in small cute, individual cups, mainly because I had some ingredients left in the kitchen and thought why not make something out of this!! There are layers of digestive biscuit crust, dulce de leche, banana slices and whipped cream, this no-bake “pie” is dangerously delicious and so easy to make! If you’ve never heard of Banoffee Pie, be prepared to discover your new dessert weakness. Banoffee Pie is arguably one of the best British creations, that combines sweet, sliced fresh bananas and clouds of whipped cream that sits on top of a velvety toffee filling, cradled by a crunchy bed of cookie crust. They form a beautiful crunchy contrast with the other ingredients. But feel free to substitute with other cookies or biscuits if you can’t get your hands on them.
Ingredients
6 digestive biscuits
150 ml of double cream/heavy cream
1 tbsp icing sugar
dulche de leche or caramel ( 4 tbsp) ( homemade or store bought)
1-2 bananas
chocolate (optional)
Directions
Step 1: In a bowl add double cream and whisk until soft peaks. Then add icing sugar and gently mix it all together. Place your cream into a piping bag.
Step 2 : Peel your banana, chop it into small pieces.
Step 3 : Take biscuits, smash them with rolling pin or in a food processor until you get crumbs.
Step 4 : Layer the dessert, first add crushed cookies, then add caramel, then add bananas and cream. Lastly top it up with more crushed cookies and bananas. You can also add melted dark chocolate if you wish. Leave in a fridge up to 3 days or enjoy straight away!
