Equipment

  • 1 8-9inch pie plate or springform pan

Ingredients
  

  • cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10) **or British digestive biscuits
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 7 Tbsp melted butter
  • cup dulce de leche **or 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 large bananas

Whipped Cream

  • 2 cups (1 pint) heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar **can use granulated sugar
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Topping

  • 1 Symphony chocolate bar with toffee

Instructions
 

  • If you are using the sweetened condensed milk to make dulce de leche, you will want to do this several hours before making the pie.
    Place the unopened can in a large saucepan or dutch oven and cover with water by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil, When the water is boiling, turn heat to medium low and mostly cover with lid allowing some venting. Adjust temperature as needed to keep it at a low boil.
    Allow to simmer for 3 hours. If the water runs low pour in boiling water to continue cooking, keeping the can submerged.
    Remove can and allow to cool before opening.
  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugars and butter.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of the pie plate or springform pan and about 1½ inches up the sides. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press the crust firmly.
  • Bake for 15-16 minutes
  • Remove and cool for at least 15 minutes.
  • Drizzle the dulce de leche onto bottom of pan, gently spread with spoon being careful to not pull up crust. **Keep a couple of tablespoons out for the topping.
  • Slice bananas and spread over dulce de leche.
  • Whip the cold whipping cream, sugar, cream cheese and vanilla on medium-high speed until medium to stiff peaks form, about 4-5 minutes. *Do not over whip. Stop when good peaks form.
  • Spread whipped cream over bananas.
  • Chop up chocolate bar into small chunks and sprinkle over whipped cream.
  • Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 2 hours. (3 is better!)
