Ingredients

For the Cookie Base

  • 150g cookies, crushed
  • 150g melted butter

For the Banana Filling

  • 2 bananas, sliced
  • 70g sugar
  • 40g butter
  • 15g cinnamon

For the Creamy Mixture

  • 200g condensed milk
  • 200ml milk
  • 40g gelatin, dissolved in warm water

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Cookie Base

Crush the cookies into fine crumbs and mix them with the melted butter until evenly combined.

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a serving dish or dessert pan to create an even base. Place it in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Step 2: Cook the Bananas

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and add the sugar. Stir until the sugar begins to dissolve.

Add the sliced bananas and cinnamon, cooking for a few minutes until the bananas become soft and caramelized. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Step 3: Make the Cream Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine the condensed milk and milk until smooth.

Add the dissolved gelatin and whisk thoroughly until fully incorporated.

Step 4: Assemble the Dessert

Spread the caramelized banana mixture evenly over the chilled cookie base.

Pour the condensed milk mixture over the bananas and gently smooth the surface.

Step 5: Chill and Set

Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2–3 hours, or until completely set.

Once firm, slice and serve chilled.

Tips for Success

  • Use ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Make sure the gelatin is completely dissolved before adding it to the milk mixture.
  • Chill the dessert thoroughly to achieve a smooth, firm texture.
  • Garnish with banana slices, cinnamon, or cookie crumbs before serving for an extra-special presentation.
