Allow to cool at room temperature about 30 minutes. -Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the cream to prevent a skin from forming -Refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

Press down on the bananas firmly but gently. -Spread ¾ cup cream over the bananas, then cover with another layer of bananas and press down on them. -Spread another ¾ cup cream over this layer of bananas and layer remaining bananas over the top, leaving about ½ inch border. -Press down on bananas before topping with remaining cream. -Cover the bananas entirely with the cream or they will brown. -Cover the pie tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
