Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ounces bittersweet chocolate or 4 ounces unsweetened mexican chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup Kahlua
1 quart cow's milk or 1 quart goat's milk
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 ripe bananas
1 quart coffee ice cream
1 quart chocolate ice cream
1 quart peanut butter ice cream
whipped cream
chopped toasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Kahlua Sauce: Place chocolate in a bowl. Bring the cream and the kahlua to a boil and pour over chocolate, stirring until combined. Keep warm.
  • Cajeta: Place the milk, sugar, and vanilla in a heavy bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and allow to reduce to a thick caramel, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Strain and keep warm.
  • To assemble: Slice the bananas into long strips on the bias and saute in a little bit of butter until golden brown. Lay the banana strips in the bottom of four serving dishes.
  • Place one scoop of each ice cream in each serving dish and pour the sauces over the ice cream.
  • Top with the whipped cream, toasted peanuts and warm banana churros.
