Ingredients
- For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups digestive biscuits or graham crackers crushed

- For the Toffee Filling:
- 1 can 14 oz sweetened condensed milk

Instructions
- Make the Crust:
- Combine the crushed biscuits and melted butter in a bowl. Press the mixture evenly into the base and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to set.
- Prepare the Toffee Filling:
- In a saucepan, melt the butter and sugar over medium heat, stirring until dissolved. Add the sweetened condensed milk and bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Cook for about 5 minutes until thickened and golden. Pour the toffee over the chilled crust and spread evenly. Chill for 1-2 hours until firm.
- Assemble the Pie:
- Once the toffee is set, layer the banana slices over the toffee filling.
- Whip the Cream:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the banana layer.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Sprinkle grated chocolate or sift cocoa powder over the whipped cream for a decorative finish. Slice and serve chilled.
