Ingredients

  • 1/2 C. butter
  • 1 C. brown sugar
  • 8 ripe bananas
  • 1/2 C. Kahlua
  • vanilla ice cream

Directions

Melt butter in chafing dish and then add brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Slice bananas in half lengthwise. Add bananas to brown sugar mixture and stir to coat. Cook bananas, stirring constantly for about one minute. Place individual portions of ice cream in separate serving dishes and get ready to serve. Add Kahlua to banana mixture and then light with a match. Quickly spoon flaming banana mixture over each dish of ice cream and serve immediately. Careful while doing this; no scarves or ties!


The Skinny: Serve with frozen yogurt rather than ice cream. Use your favorite sugar substitute for the brown sugar. I don't think there is any substitute for the liquor...without some alcohol you won't get any flame and you can't have flambe without a flame.
