Delicious traditional banoffe cake
The well -known traditional banoffe cake is a typical sweet from England. Bananas and dulce de leche butter are usually combined in this dessert.
It is a cold dessert that does not require cooking in the oven or microwave and its preparation will not take more than 30 minutes, however, you have to wait a little for it to be tasted.
What is a banoffe cake?
You will wonder then what is a cake of banoffe. Well, the name comes from the mixture of banana or banana, as it is better known in some countries, and toffee, which is a particular cream.
This combination took place in 1974 and passed through many generations reaching different countries where they have adopted the version that suits them best.
Keep in mind that at the time of serving you can make individual presentations or a single portion of which the individual portions are served. For these and many more reasons I am writing down the recipe for you to start preparing it.
Ingredients
50 grams of butter,
4 bananas,
A little rum,
1 small tablespoon of confectioner's dulce de leche,
200 grams of heavy cream,
150 grams of nuts,
100 milliliters of Water,
300 grams of sugar.
Preparation
For the preparation of this delicious dessert we will do it in three parts. Each one to make the mixtures of the layers that make up this dessert.
Bring the banana or bananas to the tip of candies
1. In that case, start making the caramel with the sugar in a pot.
2. Add the sugar little by little.
3. Place a little butter and add to the pot with the sugar.
4. Incorporate the banana into fine pieces.
5. Try not to stir too much, only what is necessary so that it does not stick.
6. At this point you can add a little liquor. And let it cook over low heat.
Make a dulce de leche mousse
Now, make a dulce de leche mousse. For it:
7. Beat the dulce de leche and cream until it looks like whipped cream. This will take a few minutes so be patient to achieve the proper consistency.
Make some caramelised nuts
At this point you can place some caramels of peanuts or dried fruits. If you do not know what a caramelised is, we will explain it to you here.
The concept of caramelised is very simple, this is nothing more than bathing nuts in syrup, for which:
8. The first thing you should do is to prepare the syrup with 100 grams of sugar and a little water until it is quite dense.
9. Add the nuts and remove from the heat.
10. Keep stirring until the sugar crystallizes.
11. Add a pinch of salt to strengthen the flavors and return to the fire to make the caramelised, that is, let the syrup dry and leave a layer of sugar on the nuts.
This process is frequently applied to certain sweets that are usually eaten as a snack or as an accompaniment to a few drinks of liquor. Either with peanuts, peanuts or walnuts with a sweet coating.
How can it be served?
Depending on the event you have, you can serve it all in a mold or if you have the possibility of using individual glasses or glasses even better, since it would give a very gourmet presentation.
When you choose where to assemble the banoffe cake, go layering the three preparations until you complete the container.
Do not worry about the portions, you can repeat if you still need to fill the container.
Once assembled, put it in the freezer for about an hour. After this time, the dessert is ready to taste.
Some tricks to serve an excellent banoffe cake
The original flavor says that when assembling the layers it would be ready. Some people when serving seek to add bitter cocoa to the glass or pan before serving.
Other versions choose to add coffee or decorate with cookie pieces. Also, they usually incorporate apples, orange or tangerine.
You can even grate chocolate on top, whether it is white or if you want to make it black.
If you like to feel the crunchiness of a base, you can make the bottom with cookies and butter before adding the layers.
This delicious dessert should be taken out when serving. In the freezer you can preserve it very well.
My personal recommendation is that you prepare it from the morning if you want to try it in the afternoon. Either you prepare the mixtures and save them to assemble later.
Or that you leave it ready, just take it out and serve. That way, the taste will be greater and the flavors will be integrated.
This dessert can be consumed by young and old and has no major contraindication. Dare to give yourself a different taste with this English recipe that I assure you will make you shine at the meeting.
