Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup graham cracker crumbs for a 9-inch pie crust
  • 0.333 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar for crust
  • 8 ounce cream cheese, softened about 1 package
  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
  • 3 large bananas ripe but firm, sliced
  • 0.25 cup chocolate syrup plus extra for drizzling
  • 10 piece maraschino cherries for topping
  • 0.25 tsp salt pinch, optional

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and granulated sugar until evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form a crust.
  • Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling to help it set, about 10 minutes.
  • Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and beat until fully combined and creamy.
  • Fold in the whipped topping gently until the mixture is light and uniform in color and texture.
  • Assemble the pie: Arrange a layer of sliced bananas over the chilled crust. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bananas.
  • Drizzle chocolate syrup over the top and garnish with maraschino cherries. You can add additional banana slices or a few dollops of extra whipped topping if desired.
  • Chill the pie for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the filling to set. Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

For a quicker version, use a store-bought graham crust. To make it more like a classic banana split, add chopped nuts and a drizzle of caramel along with the chocolate.
