This bananas foster dessert is just beyond amazing. It is easy to make and brings a gormet restaurant flavor home to your family. Only a few simple ingredients are needed and if this of for the kids, you can skip the rum. It is just as fabulous with the brown sugar and butter combo. Basically, you are creating a very decadent caramel sauce. The vanilla ice cream is of course mandatory as the hot/cold combo is tough to beat. Once the ice cream hits those hot, caramel bananas the magic begins! The dessert magic, that is! Mmmmmmm!
