Bananas Foster

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 cup banana liqueur

4 bananas, cut in half lengthwise, then

halved, or quartered long-ways,

either way is OK

1/4 cup dark rum

4 scoops vanilla ice cream

Combine the butter, sugar, and cinnamon

in a flambé pan or skillet. Place the pan over

low heat either on an alcohol burner or on top

of the stove, and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves.

Stir in the banana liqueur, then place the bananas in the pan.

When the banana sections soften and begin to brown,

carefully add the rum. Continue to cook the

sauce until the rum is hot, then tip the pan slightly

to ignite the rum. When the flames subside, lift the bananas

out of the pan and place four pieces over each portion of ice

cream. Generously spoon warm sauce over the top

of the ice cream and serve immediately or you end up

with one gooey fucking mess!
