Tips
Step 1
The more butter you add in the biscuits for the base the harder it becomes so do not add more than 6 tbsps of butter to keep it firm yet soft.
Step 2
If you layer the bananas separately they will turn black soon. Folding them in the cream helps them to remain fresh.
Step 3
Be careful while boiling the caramel. Excess boiling will make the toffee very hard. After adding condensed milk to the pan do not leave the stove, keep stirring and when you see the bubbles around the corners (that will probably appear in not more than 2 minutes) remove from heat immediately.
Step 4
You can spread some pecans on top too.
Step 5
If you do not want to make caramel at home you can always buy the pre-made caramel condensed milk. Simple put it in the pan and heat it enough so you can spread it over the base.
