    I made this for my hubby who had been hinting about a cream pie for awhile.... It was awesome and the first words out of his mouth were "this is to die for". It was even better the next day as the banana flavour came through better after sitting. Well worth the effort and then some. I may even try putting some really well drained crushed pineapple next time for a really tropical flavour!
    Thanks for a great recipe!
