Ingredients

6 total
  • 550 ml of double cream
  • 4 ripe bananas, ideally chilled in the freezer for 1-2 hours
  • 100 g of light brown sugar
  • 40 g of unsalted butter
  • 1 squeeze of lemon juice
  • 1 bar of dark chocolate, for grating

Method

3 steps
  1. Step 1

    Put the sugar, butter and 150 ml of the cream in a pan over a medium heat and stir continuously until the sugar is dissolved and the butter melted. Let bubble for a minute or two, stirring frequently, then remove from the heat and leave the sauce to cool completely.

  2. Step 2

    Pour the remaining cream into a blender. Peel and chop the bananas and add to the blender along with a squeeze of lemon juice. Whiz until smooth, thick and creamy.

  3. Step 3

    Spoon a little sauce around the sides of four glasses, smudging some of it for an attractive effect. Divide the banana mousse among the glasses and top with more butterscotch. Use a small teaspoon to ripple the butterscotch through the mousse. Grate over a little dark chocolate and chill until ready to serve.
