Banana-Macaroon Trifle




Source of Recipe


Cyndi @rc


List of Ingredients




2 tablespons butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 to 4 small firm bananas, sliced
1 tablespoon pineapple juice
1 carton (12 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed


Recipe



For macaroon mixture, beat butter and sugar in a mixing bowl until well blended. Add egg, mix well. Combine coconut, oats, flour and baking powder. Combine mil and vanilla; add to the sugar mixtures alternately with coconut mixture (mixture will appear curdled).
Spread in a well-greased 13" x 9" baking pan. Bake at 325 for 25-30 min. or until edges are golden brown. Cool completely; crumble. Set aside 1/4 cup for topping.
(NOTE: You can use store bought macaroons - if you do - you don't need the first set of ingredients.)

Just before serving, toss bananas with pineapple juice. Ina 2 1/2 gt serving bowl (use a clear one - cause it's pretty!!), layer a third of the macaroon crumbs, whipped topping and bananas. Repeat layers twice. Sprinkle with reserved crumbs. I put some strawberries on top to make it pretty!

This will yield about 8 servings, but it really depends on how much you want to make - this one is easily adapted.
