Cafe Banana Dessert Recipe

How to make it

---

• Chill four parfait glasses or 4 glass bowls in the freezer.
• Brew a pot of coffee and set aside.
• Set out three small mixing bowls.
• On a piece of waxed paper, chop the nuts and set aside.
• Peel and slice once banana and set aside in one bowl.
• Peel and slice the three remaining bananas in the second bowl,
• then mash them with a fork.
• Add four tablespoons of the brewed coffee then measure and add one tablespoon of the liqueur to the bananas, and mix thoroughly.
• In the third bowl, stir the vanilla and sugar into the yogurt.
• Do not over stir or it will become too runny.
• Bring out the 4 parfait glasses from the freezer.
• Line up the three bowls of ingredients.
• Into each serving dish, first add a heaping tablespoon of the mashed banana mixture, then add the yogurt, then add a few slices of banana; repeat with mashed banana, yogurt and sliced bananas, then garnish with the chopped nuts.
• Use the remaining tablespoon of liqueur to add a dash to top off the dish.
• NOTE: For thicker yogurt, drain it first.
• Here’s how: Place the yogurt into a piece of cheesecloth and place that in a colander.
• Place the colander over a bowl, and allow the yogurt to drain and thicken, about two hours in the refrigerator.
• The longer it drains, the thicker the yogurt will become.
