Several years ago when my husband was working with the local fire department as an emt/fire-fighter we used to have monthly ham and bean suppers as fundraisers and this particular dessert was always in demand - to the point where I ended up having to make at least three pansfull every time.

Ingredients:
CRUST:
2C crushed graham crackers
2/3C melted butter

Mix and Press in 9"x13" pan

FILLING:
3 large bananas, sliced and dipped in pinapple juice (use juice drained from crushed pineapple) - spread over crust in bottom of pan
1 16 ox. can crushed pineapple - drained and spread over bananas

TOPPING:
2 sticks softened butter
2 eggs
2Cpowdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
Spread topping over fruit - top with 1 container whipped topping and sprinkle with chopped nuts and marachino cherries

Chill cake for 8 hours before serving.

Wow this is the first time I saw a recipe for a banana split cake. I love banana spilt, the ice cream so this is something really interesting. I will try this one of these days...I'm excited!

for mine -

I make my crust -

my filling:

16 ounces cream cheese - softened
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

combine and spread over crust -

top with in this order:

3 large banana - sliced
20 ounces crushed pineapple - well drained
12 ounces Cool Whip
1/2 cup chopped nuts
4 ounces maraschino cherries - drained and halved

refrigerate 6 hours

less calories because I don't add 2 sticks butter to the filling and I don't use raw eggs.

Fewer calories is always a good thing! Good idea.....

it's great..and delicious..thanks for sharing..
