Instructions
Creating the No Bake Banana Split Cake is simple if you follow this straightforward process:
1. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Mix well until crumbs are coated.
2. Form the Base: Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch pan to create an even crust layer.
3. Mix Cream Cheese Layer: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Fold in 1 cup of whipped topping until combined.
4. Spread Cream Cheese Mixture: Spread the cream cheese mixture over the graham cracker crust evenly.
5. Add Banana Layer: Arrange sliced bananas evenly over the cream cheese mixture.
6. Top with Pineapple: Layer the drained crushed pineapple on top of the bananas.
7. Add Strawberries: Sprinkle the chopped strawberries over the pineapple layer.
8. Drizzle with Chocolate: Pour chocolate syrup over the strawberry layer to add a sweet touch.
9. Add Final Topping Layer: Top with the remaining whipped topping, spreading it evenly over the entire cake.
10. Add Nut Topping: Sprinkle chopped nuts on top of the whipped topping for added crunch.
11. Chill Time: Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to let the flavors meld and the cake set.
12. Serve: Before serving, top with maraschino cherries. Optionally, you can drizzle additional chocolate syrup over each slice.
