Marhaba !!
The best part bout hosting parties at home is that I get to make new dessert every single time. Let’s face it, I have a sweet tooth and every time I come across a dessert recipe there is a need to try it. Midnight cravings can make me move out of bed and prepare a dessert at that very moment. For me anytime is dessert time. Sometimes, I end up having dessert even for breakfast. But in spite of my love for dessert, I can’t complete a bowl of sweet course in one go. Just a couple of spoons and I am done.Long ago, I came across a recipe for Banoffee Pie. Everything looked just perfect and made me drool over the picture until I realized Bananas are used. Banoffee Pie is an English dessert pie made with Bananas and I don’t like Banana or anything that has Banana. And it was to this I decided to substitute Pineapple in place of Bananas. Hence, a new dessert; Pinoffee Pie 😀 .
This is a perfect pie dessert recipe that is sure to tantalize your taste buds. Pineapple slices, sticky toffee, and creme carmel whipped cream are arranged in layers over a cookie-like crust, resulting in a dense, cool treat.
Here’s the recipe;Ingredients:
250 Grams Digestive Biscuits, crushed
100 Grams Unsalted Butter, melted
1 Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
340 Grams Tinned Pineapple Slices
1 and 1/2 Tbsp Creme Carmel
1-1/4 cup of Whipping Cream
Method:
1)Remove the paper wrapping on the can of sweetened condensed milk and place it in a pressure cooker for 40-55mins on medium-high heat.Remove the can from the pressure cooker and allow it to cool in the refrigerator, never open this while it’s hot because it could explode, allow it to cool for several hours.
2)Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, grease a 9” pie plate or spring form pan with some non stick spray and set aside.
3)In a food processor, add crushed biscuits and butter, pulse until you have a mixture that resembles wet sand. Press it in the bottom and sides of the prepared spring form pan, pop it in the oven for about 8 minute or until lightly golden, allow to cool.
4)Once both the crust and toffee filling are cooled, pour the toffee filling evenly inside crust. Layer sliced pineapple over toffee filling. Whip the cream with vanilla and creme carmel powder and spread on top of pineapple. Sprinkle the top of the pie with roasted almonds and walnuts.
5)Pop it in the fridge for a couple hours or overnight before serving.
Ma’Salama !
