Ingredients

1/2 cup Sugar

3 tbsp Cornstarch

2 cups Whole milk

Yolks of 3 large eggs

1 tsp Vanilla extract

6 oz Semisweet baking chocolate, coarsely chopped

one 6-oz Ready-to-fill Oreo cookie crust

2 Large, ripe bananas

Topping

1 cup Heavy (whipping) cream

1/3 cup Fat-free caramel topping

1/2 cup Almond toffee bits, plus extra for garnish

Preparation

1. Whisk sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan to blend. Gradually whisk in milk, then egg yolks. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and, stirring gently, cook 2 minutes to cook yolks. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Add chocolate; let stand 1 minute to melt, then whisk until blended. Refrigerate 15 minutes until slightly cooled.

2. Spread 1/3 cup chocolate custard over bottom of crust. Peel and thinly slice bananas; arrange over custard. Spread with remaining custard. Place plastic wrap directly on surface and refrigerate at least 5 hours or up to 1 day.

3. Up to 3 hours before serving: Beat Topping ingredients in a medium bowl on high speed until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted. Sprinkle 1/2 cup toffee bits over custard. Drop dollops of topping on pie, or scrape topping into a ziptop bag, cut 1/2 in. off tip of 1 corner and pipe a design on pie. To garnish, sprinkle with additional toffee bits.
