Ingredients (serves 8)
250g Arnott’s Butternut Snap Cookies
120g butter, melted
1 can (395g) Nestle ready-made caramel (you will find this in the long-life milk section with the condensed milk)
2–3 Large bananas
500ml thickened cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 x Chocolate Flake
1. Make the base by crushing the biscuits in a food processor into fine crumbs.
2. Pour crumbed biscuits into a bowl. Melt butter and combine with biscuit crumbs.
3. Press biscuit crumbs firmly into a pie dish or 22cm springform cake tin and chill in the fridge for 20–30 minutes to set.
4. Spread caramel evenly over the biscuit base, then layer with sliced bananas.
5. Whip cream with vanilla until soft peaks form. I don’t add sugar to the cream as the caramel is sweet enough. Spoon cream over bananas and top with crushed chocolate flake.
6. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
Tips: If you are making your own caramel, place unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a pot, cover with water. Simmer gently for 2–3 hours (very important to keep it fully submerged in the water). Let the can cool completely before opening.
Use slightly firm bananas to avoid mushiness, add a pinch of salt to the caramel for a salted twist
