Total Time:

Ingredients:

• • 2 bananas
  • 120 g (about 1 cup) cookies, crushed
  • 35 g (2.5 tablespoons) butter

• • 75 g (1/3 cup) whipped cream
  • 200 g (about 3/4 cup) sweetened condensed milk
  • 35 g (2.5 tablespoons) sugar

• 1 teaspoon fine sugar (for whipping the cream)
• Chocolate flakes (for topping)

Directions:

• • Crush the Cookies: Place the cookies in a plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin.
  • Prepare the Base: In a mixing bowl, mash 1 banana. Combine the mashed banana with the crushed cookies and mix until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into a round cake pan to form the base.
  • Make the Creamy Filling: In a saucepan, melt the butter and sugar over medium heat. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens slightly.

• • Assemble the Dessert: Pour the creamy filling over the cookie and banana base. Slice the remaining banana and arrange the slices evenly on top of the filling.
  • Decorate with Whipped Cream and Chocolate Flakes: In a separate bowl, whip the cream with 1 teaspoon of fine sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the dessert and sprinkle with chocolate flakes.
  • Serve: Refrigerate the dessert for at least 30 minutes to allow it to set. Serve chilled.
