6 ounces white rum
vanilla ice cream
Servings: 6
1. Melt butter in chafing dish. Add brown sugar and blend well. Add bananas and saute lightly. Sprinkle with cinnamon and lower flame. Pour rum and banana liqueur over bananas. Ignite carefully, basting bananas with flaming liquid. Serve over ice cream when flame dies out.

2. Caution is the rule whenever liquors are ignited. Flames beneath pan must be low-or the pan removed from flame entirely-to protect against accidents.

3. Bananas must be ripe for this recipe.
