    My lot love Chinese Style banana fritters:

    Peel bananas
    Make up a pkt of batter mix- quite thick (9p in ASDA)
    Batter bananas
    Deep fry till golden brown and drain
    Drizzle with golden syrup (or any kind of syrup you fancy)

    Really easy and tastes yummy!

    frozen desserts are always cheaper than fresh ie cheesecakes, gateuxs, but a more frugal way is to make simple ingredients stretch ie turning fruit into crumbles or stewing it for icecream, also most supermarkets do things like swiss rolls for 15p and victoria sponges for 50p in their own brand or value range

    Tesco do big strawberry cheesecakes for £1
    If they are the ones I tried they are rank- tasteless in fact!

    We do something similar with the Butterscotch 'Instant Whip' - we much preferred Instant Whip to Angel Delight!
    I break up 2 Hobnobs in the bottom of a bowl and then add sliced banana, the butterscotch Instant Whip then goes on the top. Add some crushed Flake to make it a bit more 'special'! I don't think I'll ever see that on Come Dine With Me!!
