🍽️ Ingredients
- 1kg of bananas
- 2 cups (240ml) of sugar
- 2 generous tablespoons of chocolate drink powder
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 30ml of water
👨🍳 Instructions
- Mash the bananas well until you obtain a smooth puree.
- In a large saucepan, mix the banana puree, sugar, chocolate drink powder, lemon juice, and water.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon so it does not stick to the bottom.
- Cook until the mixture completely pulls away from the bottom of the pan and reaches the cutting consistency.
- Pour the mixture into a greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet, smoothing the surface well.
- Let it cool completely, cut into small squares, and, if desired, roll the candies in crystal sugar.
💡 Chef's Secret
The perfect consistency is when the mixture completely pulls away from the bottom of the pan and begins to form a sugary film on the edges. Stir constantly to prevent burning and ensure a firm texture.
