Servings: persons

3 tbsp custard powder
145 g caster sugar
500 ml semi-skimmed milk
2 None eggs, separated
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
50 g plain flour
50 g cornflour
1/2 tsp baking powder
250 g butter, softened
150 g desiccated coconut
4 None bananas, peeled and sliced
100 g milk chocolate, roughly chopped

1
Mix the custard powder, 1/4 cup of sugar and 6 tbsp milk until smooth. Bring the remaining milk to a boil and stir in the custard mixture. Bring to a boil again and simmer for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, pour into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and allow to stand at room temperature for 3 hours 30 mins.
2
Preheat the oven to 325u00b0F. Grease a 10 inch diameter springform pan and sprinkle with flour. Beat the egg yolks, vanilla extract, 1/2 cup of sugar and 2 tbsp cold water with a whisk until light and fluffy. Sift over the flour, cornstarch and baking powder and mix.
3
Beat the egg whites until forming stiff peaks and fold into the batter. Spoon into the cake pan and smooth out. Bake for 20 mins, until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 mins, then turn out on to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
4
With the whisk of a mixer, beat the butter for 8-10 mins, until thick and creamy. Stir into the pudding mixture along with the coconut. Spread one-third over the cake and arrange the bananas on top. Spoon over the remaining custard and form into a dome shape. Chill for 2 hours.
5
Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Allow to cool, then pour over the pie, spreading evenly. Sprinkle the remaining coconut around the edge. Chill for 1 hour.
