Description

A delicious and easy-to-make No-Bake Banana Split Cake that layers creamy filling with fresh fruits and a crunchy crust.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (or digestive biscuits, crushed)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 package (8 oz / 225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 container (8 oz / 225 g) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
  • 34 ripe bananas, sliced
  • 1 can (20 oz / 565 g) crushed pineapple, drained
  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 cups whipped topping
  • Maraschino cherries
  • Chopped peanuts
  • Extra graham cracker crumbs
  • Chocolate or caramel drizzle (optional)

Instructions

  1. Make the Crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until sandy. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch pan. Chill for 15 minutes.
  2. Make the Cream Layer: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Spread evenly over chilled crust.
  3. Add the Fruit Layers: Arrange banana slices over the cream layer. Spoon drained crushed pineapple evenly over bananas. Add a layer of sliced strawberries.
  4. Top It Off: Spread 2 cups whipped topping over the fruit. Garnish with cherries, chopped peanuts, extra graham crumbs, and optional drizzle.
  5. Chill & Serve: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) before slicing to let layers set.

Notes
