Steps

1
Crush the biscuits to fine crumbs in a food processor, or in a bag with a rolling pin, then mix with the melted butter.
2
Press the crumbs firmly over the base and up the sides of a 23 cm loose-bottomed tart tin and chill for 30 minutes.
3
For the toffee, melt the butter and sugar in a non-stick pan over low heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Add the condensed milk and bring to the boil, stirring constantly.
4
Boil for 2–3 minutes, stirring all the time so it does not catch, until it thickens and turns a light caramel colour.
5
Pour the toffee over the biscuit base and chill for at least 1 hour, until set.
6
Just before serving, slice the bananas and arrange them over the toffee.
7
Whip the cream with the icing sugar to soft peaks, spread it over the bananas and finish with the grated chocolate.
