Little banoffee pies
These mini desserts are perfect to serve up for a dinner party - what could be better than individual version of banoffee pies?
Serves: 6
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Chilling time: 40 minutes
What you need:
Base:
- 250g (9oz) digestive biscuits
- 100g (3½oz) butter, melted
Filling:
- 397g can Carnation Caramel
- 3 small bananas
- 284ml carton whipping cream, softly whipped
- cocoa powder to finish
You will also need:
- 6 individual 9 cm (3 ½ ") loose-bottomed flan tins
- Alternatively use a deep 18 cm (7 ") springform cake tin, greased
What you do:
- To make the base, blitz the biscuits in a food processor until they are like fine crumbs and then combine with the melted butter.
- Using the back of a teaspoon, press the mixture into the base and sides of the tins. Chill for about 20 minutes.
- Divide the caramel between the bases.
- Remove the pies from the tins. Slice the bananas, reserve six for the top and fold the rest into the softly whipped cream.
- Spoon the mixture over the caramel, decorate with a banana slice and dust with the cocoa.
Handy tip:
Turn this recipe into a sundae idea - layer the crushed biscuits (without the melted butter) and other ingredients into sundae glasses and chill until ready to serve.
