Ingredients:

• 1 liter of milk
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• Half a cup of flour
• 2 tablespoons of cornstarch
• 80 grams of butter, to be added after cooking

For Layering:

• 3 packs of petit-beurre biscuits
• Milk for soaking
• Bananas for filling

Instructions:

1. In a saucepan, combine milk, sugar, cornstarch, and flour. Cook while stirring continuously until it thickens.
2. Once thickened, turn off the heat and stir in the butter. Let it cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally, then chill in the refrigerator.
3. Whip the chilled mixture in a mixer for a few minutes until smooth.
4. Lay out a piece of cling film on your work surface. Arrange the biscuits in a rectangular shape, 3 biscuits in width and 7 in length, and lightly soak them with milk.
5. Spread a layer of the cream mixture over the biscuits. Repeat the layers, finishing with a layer of cream.
6. For the pyramid shape, arrange the biscuits around the edges and bananas in the center of the top layer.
7. Cover the bananas generously with the cream, saving some for the topping. Gently fold the cake into a pyramid shape, ensuring not to break the biscuits.
8. Wrap the cake with cling film and refrigerate overnight.
9. Carefully unwrap the cake, place it on a serving plate, spread the remaining cream on top, and garnish with pistachios.
