    Hands down...... Bavarian
    "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO-HOO What a ride!"

    Oh boy, that is just plain wrong. With all the hype that I've heard, you should request Banoffi 24/7

    Hey, it's not exactly *easy* to make the damned thing you know.

    The boiling of the tin of condensed milk for 5 hours is especially tedious, and have you ever tried to spread sticky toffee over bananas on a biscuit base without spreading it everywhere?

    I don't think so.

    :P

    Gawd, Kall - you can buy the cans of condensed milk already boiled/caramelised!!

    So, they're a bit dearer, but you don't have to spend 5 hours boiling them....

    Which means...get into the kitchen and make that blardy banoffi!
    It's obviously the winner, and you might stop us drooling

    That stuff isn't the same...it's still runny like normal condensed milk as far as I know...it has to be thick and toffee-ed.

    I helped eat the Banoffi.

    It was ultra nice. I was a virgin banoffi eater and am now addicted.

    Kall, I want to change my vote....
    I am no longer a banoffi virgin and I have seen the light.

    Sure bavarian is nice, but as for banoffi.... words are not enough.

    just a reminder, folks
    Five minutes on the lips....
    Five years on the hips

    And it's full of cholesterol, saturated fats, and calories....
    Mind you, once the pie is cut, these all fall out, so you're safe.....
