Banoffee Pie

Hello! New month and new recipe. This is a classic of the English desserts. I love this pie, specially in summer time, due this cake doesn't needs oven. You can get the toffee filling from a boiled condensed milk or using a jar of dulce de leche. But I will show you an other way which I rather than to cook the condensed milk. The process to to cook the can takes 2 hours, so there is an other way much faster and also delicious to make an smooth and tasty toffe. But if you can get a real dulce de leche jar just use it!
