Gradually add water, tossing with a fork, until dough holds together when pressed. Form dough into a disk; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle., For filling, in a small heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, flour and salt. Whisk in milk and cream until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly; cook 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. In a small bowl, whisk a small amount of the hot mixture into the egg yolks; return all to pan, whisking constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes. , Immediately transfer to a clean bowl; stir in vanilla. Cool for 30 minutes. Press waxed paper onto surface of filling; refrigerate until chilled., Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-in.-thick circle.

Fill with dried beans, uncooked rice or pie weights., Bake at 450° for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove foil and weights; bake 3-5 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack., To serve, spoon dulce de leche into crust. Layer with bananas and filling; top with whipped cream.

Steps:

• For the crust: Place the Maria crackers in the bowl of a food processor and process until coarsely ground. Add the peanuts and salt to the crumb mixture and process until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined. Transfer the crust mixture into a 9 1/2-inch diameter glass pie dish, pressing and forming the crust evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Refrigerate for 10 to 20 minutes to solidify the butter.
• For the cream filling: Using a hand-held mixer, whip the cream cheese and butter at medium speed until fluffy with minimal lumps. Add the powdered sugar and cinnamon, whipping at low speed until just combined and being careful not to curdle the butter. Add the cream and whip to soft peaks.
• To assemble the pie: Spread the dulce de leche on top of the chilled crust. Top with the sliced bananas, forming 2 layers if necessary. Pour the whipped cream on top and spread evenly to completely cover the banana layer. Refrigerate and chill until set, about 2 hours.
• To serve, top the pie with a 1-inch border of the remaining chopped peanuts. Warm the remaining dulce de leche in the microwave or on the stovetop until melted. Drizzle the dulce de leche on top of the pie and serve.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, blend together the graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar. Drizzle in the butter and mix with a fork until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture evenly over the bottom and about halfway up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool completely before filling.
• For the filling: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a shallow baking dish. Cover the pan snugly with aluminum foil. Set the shallow dish in a larger roasting pan and add hot water until it reaches halfway up the side of the baking dish. Bake until a dark caramel color, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Check occasionally to add more water to the pan as needed. The condensed milk will turn a nice brown caramel color. Carefully remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Whisk out any lumps until smooth and fill the prepared pie crust. Slice the bananas and arrange them on top of the dulce de leche caramel.
• Using a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a large mixing bowl using a handheld mixer), whip the cream on medium speed until it starts to thicken. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat until the cream holds nice soft peaks. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Grate the chocolate on top of the whipped cream just before serving.
