Michelle's Come Dine With Me Celebrity Special guests would be fools if they didn't love this chilled classic British pudding

Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 100g light soft brown sugar
  • 40g unsalted butter
  • 550ml double cream, chilled
  • 4 large ripe bananas
  • Squeeze of lemon juice, to taste
  • 25g plain dark chocolate, finely grated

Method: How to make banana and butterscotch fool

1. Put the sugar, butter and 150ml of the cream in a pan over a medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves and butter melt. Let bubble gently for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, then remove from the heat and leave to cool.

2. Pour the remaining cream into a blender. Peel and chop bananas and add to blender along with a squeeze of lemon juice. Whiz until smooth, thick and creamy.

3. Spoon a little butterscotch sauce around the sides of 4 glasses and smudge for an attractive effect. Divide the banana cream between the glasses and top with butterscotch sauce. Use a teaspoon to ripple the butterscotch through the mousse. Grate over a little dark chocolate and chill until ready to serve.
