We had bannanas, we had vanilla ice cream, we had bakers chocolate…and we found we had a superfluous population of Condensed Milk.

Melt the chocolate with the Condensed milk…taste…shudder…add sugar…retaste…  
NIRVANA! (And it didn’t smell like teen spirit, either!)

Oh what a difference Condensed Milk makes. 'Scuse me, I gotta go lick the pot.

This thread is confusing, yet somehow compelling.

So where do the bananas and ice cream fit in? Vasco de Gama discovered the BANANA SPLIT years ago.

This is really good:

Melt 1/2 stick margarine with 1 square baking chocolate

Stir in 2/3 c. sugar and 1 small can evaporated milk. Bring to a boil and boil for three minutes.

After you let it cool a little you put it on top of the ice cream that has been freezing.

The bottom is a mixture of Oreos and margarine. 28 double-stuffed Oreos (or 32 regular) ground up in a food processor mixed with 1/3 c. melted margarine. Spread on the bottom of a 12" x 12" container. Put some softened vanilla ice cream on top. Put it in the freezer. After the topping has cooled a bit, put that on top.

This is a really good dessert that I get many requests for.
