In a large saute pan, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon.
Add the bananas and baste them with the syrup for 2 minutes. Pull the saute
pan off the burner. Carefully add the banana liqueur and rum. Place the pan
back on the stove and shake the pan a couple of times. The pan should flame,
if not, ignite the pan with a match. Shake the pan back and forth until the
flame dies, basting the bananas continuously. To assemble, place two scoops
of ice cream, between two slices of pound cake, forming a sandwich. Place
the sandwich in the center of a shallow bowl. Spoon two banana halves on top
of the sandwich. Spoon the sauce over the top. Garnish with powdered sugar
and fresh mint. This recipe yields 4 servings.
