Ingredients

  • For sauce:
  • 1 C. sugar
  • ½ C. water
  • 3/4 C. whipping cream
  • 1 ½ T. dark rum
  • For Rolls:
  • 12 spring roll wrappers
  • 3 small bananas, peeled, quartered
  • lengthwise, trimmed to 4 in.
  • 1/4 C. toffee bits (such as Skor)
  • 1/4 C. finely chopped toasted walnuts
  • Vegetable oil (for deep-frying)
  • Powdered sugar
  • Chinese five-spice powder
  • Make Sauce:
  • ●Stir sugar and ½ cup water in heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil until syrup turns deep amber, brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush and swirling pan occasionally, about 12 minutes.
  • ●Reduce heat to low. Add cream (mixture will bubble vigorously) and stir until caramel bits dissolve.
  • ●Remove from heat.
  • ●Mix in rum.
  • ●(This can be made 1 day ahead. Chill. Before serving re-warm over low heat, stirring occasionally.)
  • Make Rolls:
  • ●Arrange 4 spring roll wrappers on work surface (keep remainder covered).
  • ●Place 1 banana piece diagonally across 1 corner of each wrapper. Brush opposite corner with water.
  • ●Drizzle each banana with 1 teaspoon caramel sauce, 1 teaspoon toffee bits and 1 teaspoon walnuts.
  • ●Fold in wrapper corner closest to banana. Roll wrapper over banana once, then fold in sides and roll up as for egg roll, pressing ends to seal.
  • ●Repeat filling and rolling remaining wrappers.
  • (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
  • ●Pour enough oil into heavy large saucepan to reach depth of 3 inches. Heat oil to 375 degrees.
  • ●Working in batches, fry rolls in oil until deep golden brown, turning frequently, about 3 minutes per batch.
  • ●Using slotted spoon, transfer rolls to paper towels and drain.
  • ●Arrange 2 rolls on each plate and sift powdered sugar over them. Sprinkle with five-spice powder. Drizzle caramel sauce around rolls and serve.
