Directions

  1. Spray 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish with nonstick spray. Arrange 3/4 of cookie dough in prepared dish (reserve remaining dough for another use).

Freeze crust 1 hour.

Stand foil strip snugly around dish, protecting outer edge of crust; secure overlap with paper clip. Bake crust till golden brown and dry to touch, about 25 min. Cold completely.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk 1/3 c. sugar, cornstarch, and salt to blend in heavy medium saucepan. Whisk in yolks; gradually add in lowfat milk, whisking till smooth. Whisk over medium-high heat till custard thickens and boils, about 6 min. Remove from heat. Whisk in butter, rum, and 1 tsp. vanilla. Transfer to large bowl; cold to lukewarm, whisking occasionally, about 45 min.
  4. Spread 1 c. custard in crust. Top with 3 sliced bananas, then remaining custard, covering bananas completely. Refrigeratepie till filling sets, about 2 hrs. Beat cream, powdered sugar and remaining 1 tsp. vanilla in medium bowl to peaks. Spread cream over pie. Chill at least 1 and up to 8 hrs. Garnish pie with chocolate curls, if you like. Cut into wedges and serve.
