Step 2: Creating the Custard
Mix all custard ingredients and bring to thickening over low heat. Once thickened, turn off the heat, add butter and vanillin, and cool the cream.
Step 3: Whipped Cream and Final Touches
Cook whipped cream in a bowl by beating a glass of milk with a bag of whipped cream. Mix it with the custard. Grind the chocolate and add it to the mixture for that extra touch of indulgence.
Top 4 Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Mistake 1: Overmixing the Batter
Overmixing can lead to a dense cake. Mix until just combined to maintain the light and fluffy texture.
Mistake 2: Ignoring the Cooling Time
Allowing the cake and custard to cool is crucial for the right consistency. Rushing this step can result in a less-than-ideal dessert.
Mistake 3: Using Cold Ingredients
Ensure that eggs, milk, and other refrigerated items are at room temperature before starting. Cold ingredients can affect the overall texture of the cake.
Mistake 4: Neglecting the Whipped Cream
Whipping the cream adds a luxurious texture. Don’t skip this step, as it enhances the overall taste and mouthfeel of the banana cake.
