Method
Steps
- In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined. Press firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan or pie dish to form the crust. Place in the freezer while preparing the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated.
- Layer half of the banana slices over the crust. Spread half of the peanut butter filling over the bananas. Repeat with remaining bananas and filling.
- Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm. Before serving, let sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes. Garnish with chopped peanuts and a drizzle of melted chocolate if desired.
Notes
For best results, use very ripe bananas for natural sweetness. This cake can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Let it thaw slightly before slicing for clean cuts.
