These Chocolate Banoffee Puddings might just be the best banoffee recipe you’ll ever find! The sweet medley of dark chocolate, caramel, and bananas is aboslutely decadent. Serve the pudding in individual trifle glasses with freshly shaved chocolate to impress at your next celebration!

World's Best Bannoffee Chocolate Pudding

Okay, I admit it. I have a teeny, tiny, little bitty addiction to chocolate. Who can blame me really?

This past weekend I was able to host some great friends for a casual dinner. We kept things pretty simple for the meal, but I wanted to serve them something really special for dessert. So I came up with this recipe – which I think may be the best banoffee chocolate pudding that I have ever tasted!

Now if you don’t know what banoffee is, then you have really been missing out. Banoffee (or bananoffee) typically refers to a type of pie. It’s an English dessert made from bananas, cream, and toffee. The very best banoffee recipes feature classic dulche de leche!

Obviously, that’s an amazing flavor combination. So I decided to adapt that traditional recipe into something a little more modern and fun! These banoffee puddings are easy enough to make for a family night at home, or fancy enough to serve at a dinner party. In fact, I recently made these Chocolate Banoffee Puddings the star of a vegetarian wine dinner, which also featured a spicy pumpkin chili and feta tartlets.

Let’s make the Best Banoffee Chocolate Pudding!

Now, onto making the world’s best Banoffee Chocolate Puddings.

We begin with a layer of dulce de leche. This sticky, sweet base is then topped with bananas lightly fried in butter. You could add a little brown sugar when frying the bananas if you really want to, but I felt with the sweetness of the dulce de leche, adding yet more sugar was unnecessary. But if you prefer a sweeter pudding – go for it!

If you love the flavor of dulce de leche – be sure to check out these Dulche De Leche Cupcakes too!

The dulche de leche is then topped with a creamy chocolate, slightly bitter pudding that isn’t half as sinful as it looks.  The chocolate pudding somewhat reminds me of a bΓ©chamel in that it has a milk base thickened with flour over a low heat. Once thickened, roughly chopped 70% cocoa chocolate is whisked in to make the most divine chocolate pudding you have ever tasted. The bitterness of the chocolate works so well with the sweet bananas and sticky caramel.

If you want to skip the dulce de leche and bananas, the pudding is brilliant served with fresh strawberries and cream, or caramelised orange segments. However, you may require a touch more sugar if you intend to stick with the 70% cocoa chocolate.

What more could you want – other than a spoon to eat one right now?

Ingredients

  • 14 oz condensed milk sweetened
  • pinch sea salt
  • 3 bananas just ripe, sliced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp flour heaped, all purpose
  • 1/8 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups milk
  • 100 g chocolate 70% cocoa, roughly chopped
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • To make the dulce de leche preheat the oven to 220 celsius (425 Fahrenheit) and pour the condensed milk into a casserole dish and sprinkle with sea salt and stir to combine. Covering with a tight fitting lid or foil and place the casserole dish inside a large roasting pan and fill with water so that the water level is Β½ the height of the casserole dish. Bake for 90 minutes until golden. Set aside to cool completely. If your dulce de leche appears lumpy after it comes out of the oven don’t panic. Use an immersion (stick blender) to blend until smooth and glossy.
  • Heat a large frying pan over a medium low heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted add the banana slices (you may have to cook the bananas in a couple of batches) and fry until softened. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
  • Take 6 small glasses and divide the dulce de leche between them. Top with the banana slices and set aside.
  • In a small saucepan add the flour and sugar and whisk in a small amount of milk and combine until a smooth paste forms. Add the remaining milk and whisk and place over a medium low heat. Whisk until the mixture thickens. This can take some time, you don't need to whisk all the while, but do keep an eye on the mixture and whisk now and again to prevent lumps forming.
  • Remove from the heat and add the chocolate. Leave the chocolate to melt for a minute before whisking into the mixture. Divide the chocolate mixture between the glasses and refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve topped with a dollop of cream and grated chocolate.

Notes

If you decide to make the chocolate pudding on it's own you may need to increase the sugar slightly to counteract the bitterness of the 70% cocoa chocolate, depending on your tastes.

    I had no idea you’d been blogging so long! I’ve only been at it 3 years and sometimes I get kind of burned out myself.
    Your blog is one of the most beautiful food blogs out there, and I’m really happy you’re back. I liked the design before, but this one is lovely too.
    Gorgeous photos, as always!

    Good to see a lovely new post from you πŸ™‚ Welcome back! I went through something similar four years ago and started my design blog. After two years of more design blogging and less food blogging, I realised where my legions lay and was glad for that perspective. Happy you found yours! x

    I could give you a big hug. Even though I haven’t been blogging that long, I have had that same experience of feeling nothing was really good enough to post. Then one day I came across a quote of Julia Child:

    β€œThe only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you’ve got to have a what-the-hell attitude.”

    Then I got back on the horse and haven’t looked back. You have a beautiful blog, you’re a talented writer and a gifted cook.

    I’m so glad you’re back. πŸ™‚

    I’d like one of these puddings for dessert!

    I totally understand you… I’ve been feeling excatly the same lately, so I’m trying to take things slowly and not stress to much about it all.

    Those puddings look amazing! That is a wonderful dessert.

    Glad to see you back!

    I’m glad to see that you’re back! I always enjoy reading your blog.

    The dessert looks lovely and sinfully delicious despite the fruit. I especially like the chocolate layer and how it uses milk and not cream. I’ll definitely be trying that!

    I absolutely love the photo too. It looks slightly different to your others; is the lighting different?

      I love how the chocolate pudding uses milk too. I’ve even made it with skim milk and it tastes fantastic too. πŸ™‚

      As for my photos, yes, I’ve been experimenting with different lighting.
