This pie is sooooo good. You would think that a whole can of dulce de leche would make it too sweet, but it is balanced so well with the fresh bananas and the homemade whipped cream. Try it, you will not be dissapointed. I Promise.

I did find Dulce de Leche in the store and the pie was not so runny. It was much better.

First I could not find Dulce de Leche in the store so I had to make my own. The pie had very good flavor but got running. I'm not sure if I would use Dulce de Leche from the store if it would turn out different. I will have to experiment on this one.
