Banana Split Dessert Recipe
Directions
CRUST:
  • Mix crushed graham cracker and one stick melted butter with a fork.
  • Line the bottom and sides of the baking pan with this mixture.
  • Bake for 5-8 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool.

FILLING:
  • Beat eggs*, 2 sticks of butter, 1 cup of whipped topping and powdered sugar until fluffy.
  • Spread mixture on cooled crust.
  • Top with crushed pineapple and a layer of sliced bananas (2-3 bananas).
  • Cover with remaining whipped topping.
  • Garnish with nuts, bananas, or sprinkled with crushed graham crackers.
  • Refrigerate for one hour before serving.

*NOTE: When a recipe requires "raw" eggs as an ingredient, there is always a concern that potentially harmful bacteria may have invaded the egg which may cause illness in humans. Although the probability is low (1 in 20,000 eggs), the concern does exist; therefore, if you are concerned about using raw eggs, consider an egg substitute, such as pasteurized whole eggs, egg white substitutes, or meringue powder, to reduce the potential of bacterial contamination.
