2 Make a cut along the length of another banana through the skin and fill
with 2 tbsp chocolate spread.

3 Grease a rectangle of foil with butter and wrap loosely around the
banana, leaving a little room for expansion.

4 Add to the roasting pan, transfer the pan to the oven and cook for about
10-15 minutes, or until the bananas are soft.

5 Place the remaining chocolate spread in a pan with 2 tbsp cream, 25g/1oz
butter and 1 tbsp white wine and heat gently until melted. Serve the baked
bananas with the chocolate sauce and decorate with mint sprigs.

bottom of a trifle dish. Drizzle over 3 tbsp white wine and leave to soak.

orange, 2 tbsp orange juice and 1 tbsp honey. Peel and slice the remaining
banana, add to the mixture and stir in the spoon on top of the cake cubes.

8 Whisk the egg whites until they make stiff peaks, add the icing sugar and
whisk again. Add the whipped cream, 2 tbsp orange juice and 2 tbsp white
wine and fold together. Pile on top of the custard and decorate with the
rosemary sprigs.
