Recipe - Chocolate Banana Terrine

5 md Bananas; peeled but left
whole
1 Heavy whipping cream
1 Excellentquality
bittersweet choco; chopped

Line a 4x8inch loaf pan with plastic wrap. Place bananas in pan to make 2
layers. In a small saucepan, bring cream to a boil; lower heat to medium
and add chocolate, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until melted.
When chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth, pour over
bananas. Tap pan lightly on countertop to distribute chocolate between the
bananas. Allow to cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Unmold and remove
plastic wrap. Cut into slices, about 1/2inch thick. If desired, serve with
a scoop of vanilla ice cream and toasted slivered almonds. Yield: 1218
servings, depending on portion sizes. Note:This dessert is very rich and I
prefer to serve a halfslice per person with a scoop of ice cream topped
with toasted almonds on the side.
