Classic Banoffee Pie !!

This is the simplest banoffee recipe. Anyone can make this and it really doesnt take long!

Ingredients:
200g butter
400g digestive biscuits
1 pint of double cream
2 bananas
2 tins of condensed milk

**Top Tip** Most big supermarkets now sell tins of toffee, the same brand as the condensed milk but it is already boiled for you. This will save you time and energy if you can get this instead!

The How-To:

Place all the biscuits in a freezer bag or similar and smash up.
Melt butter in a pan and combine with the crushed up biscuits in a bowl.
Put this biscuit mixture in the bottom of a cake tin and compress with the back of a spoon.

Put the cake tin in the fridge and leave to harden.
Boil the two tins of condensed milk in a pan of water for about 2 hours. This turns it into toffee! (if you bought the tins of caramel skip this step).

**Be very careful to keep enough water in the pan at all times to cover the tins or they will explode!**

When cool, spread the toffee over the biscuit base.
Slice up the bananas and place these on top of the toffee.
Use an electric whisk to beat the double cream in a bowl until it begins to form peaks.
Place the whipped cream on top of the bananas and toffee.
Grate some high quality dark chocolate over the cream. Dark chocolate goes excellent with bananas!
Put back in the fridge for about half an hour.

Your Done!

**For an extra special Banoffee Pie drizzle some chocolate syrup over the top! **
