1 tablespoon dark rum

1 teaspoon banana extract

This ice cream was not to my liking, tasted like frozen lard. I love frozen custard and gourmet ice creams but many of them are very involved and this recipe seemed simple and I like bananas foster so I figured this would be great. NOT. This ice ream was waaaay too sweet, did not have much banana flavor or if it did it was masked by the cloyingly sweet taste of the heavy, lard-like concoction called ice cream. The sauce was a greasy mess that added to the heavy, oily ice cream. I do like the idea of bananas foster ice cream but the next time I make it with this recipe I will use half-and-half instead of the full cream, and only 1 1/2 cup or less of sweetened condensed milk, increase the banana flavoring to 1 tablespoon, add 1/2 teaspoon salt to help cut the sweetness (especially because the sauce is over-the-top sweet. The sauce would be just as good with only 2 tablespoons of butter instead of an entire stick (8 tablespoons.
