amazing recipe! we used this is a topping for vanilla bean ice cream and now can't go back to having ice cream without it! We give it 4 stars because the amount of sugar and butter was a bit too much--either use five bananas with this recipe, or cut the sugar and butter into (at least) half -
I topped strawberry yogurt with this - excellent, I will be making it again! -
Sublime! I halved the butter, and added a TBSP each of tequila and dark rum to this and served it over low fat vanilla ice cream. You could add macadamias and toasted coconut as well, if you really want to break the bank! Sooo delicious!

Aloha! I'm 29 years old and from the UK. My other half calls me his 1950's housewife because I just love to bake, preserve and cook in general! After studying catering at college I decided commercial cookery wasn't for me but I still like nothing more than discovering new dishes, throwing dinner parties and so on!
I work on the recruitment side of a quantity surveying consultancy about 25 miles north of London. I love my job. It's hard work but fast paced, challenging and my work day just flies by.
With regards to how I rate recipes, I try and keep it fair and to the system. I do my best to give no lower than 3 stars but will do on occasion if I made something as directed and it still ended up in the bin. I've never given 1 star but on occasion I'll leave no stars if I suspect something went horribly wrong. Most recipes get rated at 3/4 stars because 5 stars is reserved for spectacular recipes that become frequent users and a family favourite. Everyone has their own rating systems and that doesn't offend me. Rate my recipes as you see fit - I know what I like and what I don't and I'm here to fill my recipe book (filling anyone elses is merely an advantage), not to win a popularity competition or become chef of the year.
