Ingredients
For the crust:
- 5 oz digestive biscuits or graham crackers 150 g, 10 digestive biscuits
- 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter 75 g
- pinch cinnamon powder
For the filling:
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk 15 zo, 400g
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter 1/2 stick, 56 g
To assemble:
- 2-3 bananas, thinly sliced
- squeeze lemon juice
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold 250 ml
- 2 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- cocoa powder or grated chocolate to top
Instructions
For the crust:
- Crush the biscuits into a fine powder by using a food processor, or placing them in a large freezer bag and whacking them with a rolling pin.
- Stir the crumbs with melted butter and cinnamon until well moistened. Place 2 tablespoon or so of crust into each dessert cup, press down with a spoon to get an even, compressed layer, and place in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
Make the toffee:
- Stir the butter and brown sugar for the filling in a heavy bottomed saucepan on low heat until melted and combined. Add the condensed milk, turn heat up to medium and cook, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a boil and thickens and darkens into a light golden brown color, a few minutes. Remove from heat.
To assemble:
- With an electric mixer, whip the heavy cream with the icing sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, toss the sliced bananas with a squeeze of lemon juice,this will help prevent browning.
- Take out the cups from the fridge, and add 1-2 tbsps of the toffee filling on top of the biscuit crumbs in each cup, then add a layer of sliced bananas, and whipped cream topping. Repeat layers with more biscuit crumbs, toffee, bananas and whipped cream if you have space in your cup.
- Keep in the fridge until ready to serve, it's best if the banoffee chills a few hours or overnight.
