Crunch. Squirt. Slice. Whip. Sprinkle.
You are less than ten minutes away from a decadent dessert. Yes, it’s a bit of a cheat’s recipe but so what? Although I’m a cook-from-scratch kind of a girl, looking after a baby and toddler has taken a toll on my energy and enthusiasm the past few months. What is “sleep”? What exactly is “free time”? Can you spell it for me? Bah, who needs it anyway!
There is only so much chocolate a girl can eat before getting sick of it and start looking further afield. No, I don’t want to bake and dirty a dozen dishes and utensils. No, I don’t want to spend hours cooking up some strange Heston Blumenthal concoction. I want easy and simple. This is the answer.

Easy Banoffee Pots
Prep Time: 10 mins – Cooking Time: None
Ingredients
- 6 digestive biscuits
- ready-made toffee sauce
- 2 bananas, sliced
- 300ml (½ pint) whipping cream
- 50g (2 oz) milk chocolate, grated
Method
- Place the biscuits in a food bag and use a rolling pin to smash into crumbs.
- Divide the biscuit crumbs between the serving glasses (you should have about 2cm (1 inch) in each glass).
- Squeeze a layer of toffee sauce on each biscuit layer – don’t worry about making it too neat.
- Now top with the banana slices. Softly whip the cream and spread over the bananas. Finish by sprinkling with chocolate shavings.
Amen. Good luck, but it seems you’re doing great.
I’ll have to make my own toffee sauce but I’ll make this for dessert right now!

What are “digestive biscuits”? This looks great!
Digestive biscuits are just plain old….cookies! Here’s a link to Wikipedia that gives a much better and detailed description:
