Roadside classic

Had a bit of a sweet-tooth today so I made rachaels Chocolate Banana Cream Pie. I have always had a "pro pie' stance, so I was glad to see this recipe of rachael and a little surprised to since she always say that she is not a baker. She has just come out with her own line of bake ware called "oven lovin"......a name I think is just great.....anyway on to the pie.......

Ingredients
1 frozen pie shell, pricked several times with tines of a fork
1 package instant chocolate pudding, prepared to package directions
2 ripe bananas, sliced thin on an angle
1 can spray whipped cream
1 dark chocolate candy bar


Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Bake pie shell 10 to 12 minutes, until golden. Remove from oven and let cool.

Line the baked and cooled pie shell with a layer of chocolate pudding, half of the prepared amount. Add a layer of bananas. Top with remaining prepared instant chocolate pudding and remaining bananas. Cover the top with a giant swirl of whip cream from the spray can, starting at the center and working out. Shave a chocolate bar with a vegetable peeler and top pie with shavings. Serve immediately


The verdict..........This was a really a tasty treat, one of the best pies I have ever had. The only thing I would have changed about this is that, I had to make a second pie do to the fact that I tripped taking the first one from the oven and ended up slinging it across my kitchen. Even managed to get some of it in the fish tank.........on the plus side, the fish took a nibble, so i think they liked the pie.

So if you decided to follow in my footsteps......double the ingredients......


Until tomorrow...............
