Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
3/4 cup Butter
2 Margarine
3/4 cup Confectioners’ sugar
1 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Walnuts
2 Firm bananas
1 Maraschino cherry
1 Crushed pineapple
1/3 cup Chocolate curls
Maraschino cherries

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust:

    • Melt 1/2 cup of butter and combine it with the wafer crumbs. Press this mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie plate, creating a delectable crust foundation.

    • Carefully spread this creamy mixture over the prepared crust, ensuring an even distribution.
  4. Prepare the Chocolatey Banana Split Mixture:

    • In another bowl, whip together the cream, sugar, and cocoa until stiff peaks form, creating a luscious chocolatey base.
    • Gently fold in the walnuts, sliced bananas, crushed pineapple, and maraschino cherries into this decadent mixture. The tropical flavors will infuse beautifully with the chocolate goodness.
  5. Assemble the Pie:

    • Spoon this tantalizing chocolate banana split mixture onto the prepared crust, ensuring it fills the pie plate evenly.
  6. Chill Time:

    • Cover the pie with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or, better yet, overnight. This allows the flavors to meld together and creates a perfectly chilled dessert.
  7. Garnish and Serve:

    • When ready to serve, garnish the pie with dollops of whipped topping, a sprinkle of chocolate curls, and a cherry on top for that classic finishing touch.
  8. Enjoy!
