We really liked this dessert but we had trouble in making it. We wound up making it twice. The first time the mixture separated and the egg cooked. So we made it in a double boiler. That time the egg didn't cook and we were able to finish the dessert.

Yum this was so good. It was rich, creamy and delicious. The texture and flavor was perfect. The bananas were tender and delicious, the rum cream was devine and the the syrup created from the butter, lemon juice, sugar and banana put this dessert over the top. I made 1/2 the cream without rum for my dh. We both enjoyed our versions of this tasty treat. Thank you for sharing Teresa.
