How to Make Banana Cream Biscuit Bars
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Line a square or rectangular dish (9×9 or similar) with a layer of tea biscuits. Slice the bananas in half or lengthwise and place them evenly over the biscuits.
Step 2: Make the Cream Filling
In a saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, and heavy cream. Heat over medium heat until just warm. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a bit of cold milk until smooth, then stir it into the warm mixture.
Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a pudding-like consistency (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 3: Assemble the Layers
Pour the thickened cream over the bananas and biscuits in the dish, spreading evenly. Top with another layer of tea biscuits, pressing them gently into the filling.
Step 4: Chill & Set
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. The cream will firm up and the biscuits will soften slightly, creating that melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Step 5: Slice & Serve
Once fully chilled and set, cut into squares or bars. Serve cold as a refreshing, satisfying dessert.
