Ingredients
250 gm milk chocolate digestive biscuits crushed
65 gm unsalted butter
chocolate curls to decorate
for the filling
397 gm can caramelized condensed milk
150 gm plain chocolate, chopped
120ml creme fraiche
15mls golden syrup
2 bananas
250ml creme fraiche
10ml strong black coffee
Method
Mix the butter with the biscuit crumbs.
Press on to the base and sides of a 23cm loose-based flan tin - chill.
Make the filling.
Gently melt the chocolate with the creme fraiche and golden syrup in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water.
Stir in the caramelised condensed milk and beat until evenly mixed.
Pour the filling into the biscuit crust and spread it evenly.
Slice the bananas evenly and arrange them over the chocolate filling.
Stir the creme fraiche and coffee together in a bowl, then spoon the mixture over the bananas.
Sprinkle the chocolate curls on top. Alternatively, omit the creme fraiche topping and decorate with whipped cream and extra banana slices.
