And the winner of the "Create Dunkin's Next Donut" contest is a creation with a "bananas foster filling" and a mouthful of a moniker - the "Monkey-See Monkey-Donut," Dunkin' Donuts said.

While the competition is nationwide, the winner is local, the Canton-based chain noted in a press release. According to Dunkin', this year's sinker uber chef is Rachel Davis of Sharon, and her recipe was tops from among nearly 90,000 submissions in this year's competition.
In a press release, Dunkin' described the winning entry as "a bananas foster-filled donut topped with chocolate icing and chopped Reese's Peanut Butter chips." Customers will be able to sample the Davis creation now through Sept. 12 at participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurants nationwide, the chain said.

As fans of the dessert trolley know, lore has it that the original bananas foster was named after a New Orleans crime commissioner. Many recipes call for the dessert to be drenched in civilizing liqueurs and ignited. No word yet on how the "Monkey-See Monkey-Donut" will stand up to a flambe treatment.
