Ingredients
For the Caramel Sauce
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup water
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 2 tbsp unsalted butter
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– Pinch of salt
For the Cream Layer
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 2 tbsp powdered sugar
– 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
– 4 ripe bananas (sliced)
– 1 package graham crackers (crushed)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Stop stirring and let it cook until it turns a deep amber color.
Carefully add the heavy cream (it will bubble up). Stir until smooth.
3. **Finish the Sauce:** Remove from heat and stir in the butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Let the caramel sauce cool.
In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
In serving glasses or a trifle dish, start by adding a layer of crushed graham crackers. Top with a layer of sliced bananas, followed by a drizzle of caramel sauce. Add a layer of whipped cream.
Continue layering until you reach the top of the glass or dish. Finish with a final dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld. Serve chilled and enjoy your banana caramel cream dessert!
