Here's how I make it.

Caramelized Bananas with Coconut Rum Cream
 Serves 4   | Time to Make: 10 minutes, including prep


Ingredients

2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon coconut rum
2 bananas
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup brown sugar


Step by Step

1. Whip whipping cream and sugar on medium to high speed with mixer. Pour in coconut rum and whip until the cream holds a stiff peak on the whisk.

2. Melt butter in an iron skillet. While it is melting, peel bananas and cut in half and then split in half lengthwise. Add banana to the melted butter in skillet. Sprinkle with brown sugar. Allow sugar to melt and caramelize with bananas.

3. Serve 2 pieces of banana per person with a generous dollop of flavored cream.

Be ready for requests for this dessert. You'll get them often!
