  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Fit a large pastry bag with a 1/2 -inch round tip.
  3. Combine the butter, granulated sugar, salt and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
  4. Remove from the heat; sift the flour into the saucepan and stir with a wooden spoon to make a paste.
  5. Return to medium heat and stir until the dough pulls away from the side of the pan and is slightly shiny, about 2 minutes.

  13. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
  14. Meanwhile, beat the heavy cream and the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer until soft peaks form; refrigerate until ready to assemble.
  15. Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted.
  16. Cut the puffs in half crosswise with a serrated knife; sandwich with the sliced bananas, dulce de leche and whipped cream.
