YUMMY!! I make a similar version to this Banana Split cake. I'm in northern Scandinavia, even if I am born and raised in the US and used to all the various mixes you can buy, Over the years I've lived here, I've had to figure out how to reach the same or at least as near the same results, without the mixes. 🤔 I make this Banana Split Cake not with the crackers at the bottom, even if we do have graham crackers and other cookie crackers. I make it with a baked soft/moist/spongy vanilla cake bottom about one inch thick. Since we can't find Cool Whip over here, I use heavy whipping cream, sweetened with powdered sugar. I don't ad any vanilla to the whipped cream. For the vanilla pudding, I make my own from scratch, just making it much thicker than I normally would make it for a pourable vanilla sauce/cream topping. I do the same as you, folding the whipped cream into the cooled vanilla pudding. I take my own homemade type Philadelphia cream cheese, (we can find Philadelphia cream cheese here but, it's very expensive...) with added sugar to it and spread that out on the cake bottom, which has been chilled and loosened from the pan but, put back in the pan again to be able to put the rest of the toppings on, without it oozing out everywhere... 😂(yep, been there, done that, got the t-shirt... Still tasted good but... It wasn't pretty... 😱 😁) I don't use the pineapple even if I love it on its own and in other recipes. My family and I prefer to add canned sliced peaches instead. as well as a few other berries/fruit. Next step is that I add the mix of whipped cream/vanilla pudding on top of the sliced peaches. After the vanilla pudding/whipped cream, I add the sliced bananas. If you slice your bananas ahead of time and place them in water which has lemon/lime juice in it, it will prevent the bananas from turning brown. They will eventually still turn brown but, not as fast. Similar to apples... Next I'll spread the rest of the whipped cream, that I have added about a teaspoon of vanilla extract too on top of the "cake". More sliced bananas on top and instead of the chocolate syrup, I drizzle a fruit syrup that I feel goes along taste wise with both the vanilla, peaches and bananas. I've used peach syrup, raspberry syrup and strawberry syrup, they're all good. As a "garnish" I use chopped up slices of peaches or, whatever other fruit I have used inside the cake. I've used both peaches, raspberries, kiwis and strawberries... It's all good... ☺ Thank you for sharing your recipe. 🙏❤

Hey, isn’t a banana split supposed to have strawberries as well?

@solanisomeni

@@ellacarson2048 I've both seen and eaten a variation of ingredients and toppings such as different berries, chocolate, syrups, baked meringue tops/peaks, ice cream and more. So far, the only thing consistent, has been the bananas... 😁 They all taste good though. Have no idea what the first original banana split was made out of.

Well that is just beautiful !

This takes a little longer, but I find that baking the graham cracker crust for a few minutes makes it hold together better and no need to freeze. It also gives a delicious nutty flavor. Also, homemade pudding/Bavarian cream is an alternative to boxed mix pudding.

Mama would bake too. Cool it - get harder crunchier and more crust thicker - thick crunch makes it the cake. Use this with Key-lime pie topped with meringue in place of whipped topping. Brown cool - refrigerate 4-5 hours - cold

Yum. Now I think I’d rather have this than dinner 😂

Oh my, yes please! I had something like this at a church event about 7 years ago and have been looking for the recipe ever since. If my memory serves me correctly I think the one I tried also had coconut, chocolate chips and nuts. I suppose any or all of those could be added or omitted. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Tammy! This is one of my favorites too! We have always made them with just a couple of small variances. One, butter and vanilla are also mixed in with the cream cheese, AMAZING! Two, we always use chocolate wafers instead of graham crackers. Also, we always freeze the whole thing. I got this recipe many years ago on the back of an Imperial sugar bag. In the summer I often serve it with fresh strawberries, but when I added the strawberries to the cake itself the kids LOVED it, but the adults do not find frozen strawberries so enjoyable to eat. Love Your recipes and Your story! I also LOVE Your kitchen! You have great taste and decorating skills! 💕 I am so happy for you and Chris in Your new home 💝

It seem more like a pie looks yummy

That looks so good!!! Great for a summer dessert.

This looks fantastic. I'm not American and for me Banana Split is an ice cream, but I can totally imagine this being adorable. Maybe I'll do as in the comments a sponge cake, so that it's not all cream. But the rest looks fantastic. I can only hope the normal whipped cream would do. I can't wait to try it.

That looks devine. I do plan to make it this Summer. Wonderful summertime dessert. Barbara in Alabama

My daughter made this desert and it was delicious. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Tammy, this brings me back to church as a child Sunday lunches. I ate so much good food I am smiling at my memories. My Momma is a FANTASTIC cook. My sisters and I learned well. You give me joy with your cooking I am so ready to come over for dinner. I am from Mississippi but after my Military service I settled in Ohio where my husband was from . Ohio is beautiful and has great food but as you get older you appreciate and crave things of your childhood. Thank you for sharing your foid and love with me and all your you tube people. I really miss White Lily Flour!!!

I make mine without pudding I think I will try your version next time❤🙏

I got me a piece before it got gone😂😂 love it.❤

Coat the sliced bananas in the pineapple juice (or other citrus, like lemon juice) to help them stay pretty for longer. I do that when I make banana pudding and it does help. Probably won't prevent browning but does seem to take longer.

The recipe is a bit different from mine. As a matter of fact I made this today; one of my favorites. I had to wait until my daughter in law to get off work to bring me cool whip. I thought I had cool whip. I had 2 cool whip containers in the freezer. From now on all my recycled containers will have black ink marks all over them! One container was chili and the other was fish 🤣

We called it mud pie. It would have the pecan, flour and butter crust. Baked. Then the cream cheese, powder sugar layer, then a chocolate pudding layer, then a vanilla pudding layer, then whipped cream or Cool whip layer.. When I moved to Alabama people would bring it to work made with a graham cracker crust. Didn't like it. Thought it tasted better with the flour, pecan, butter crust. That crunch of the pecans and butter with the salt was a nice contrast with the sweetness of the rest of puddings.

I loved making this cake when I was younger, haven’t made it in years. I made mine just a little bit different - I mixed 1/2 stick of butter, 8 oz of cream cheese, and 2 cups of confectionery sugar for my second layer…then sprinkled the pineapple, and just like you did. Oh my goodness, you brought back some memories - thank you for that! I’m gonna try your recipe tomorrow to compare - it looks amazing

I haven’t had this dessert before. I think I will make it for my grown children and their families.

Omg, this looks so good I'm going to have to try it. On the subject of bananas, I've been making fruit pizzas for 40 years. I give the banana slices a rinse through the Mandarin orange and pineapple juice and they never turn brown.

My favorite too, but I haven't made it in years. I can always count on Tammy to make something delicious 😋

Hi Tammy! This looks delicious!

I really want some Banana Split Cake lol

I ate this a LOT in the 80s. Every work potluck, SOMEBODY brought this!

In the 70's at my work we would have potlucks. One of my coworkers made a version of this cake. Her bottom layer was a thin layer of cake. She would make a regular layer cake but bake it in 2 - 9x13 pans. Then top it with crushed pineapple, bananas, pudding, cool whip and coconut.

How do you stay so tiny eating such a sumptuous dessert?? You are one of my favorite cooks on YT and I’m a gonna make me some banana split cake yummo

That looks Absolutely Delicious!!! I'm a Carmel girl instead of chocolate fudge!!! Great Easy Recipe!!! God Bless Us All!!!

Oh my gosh Tammy that looks so good I think am going to make this for my husband birthday he will enjoy it. Thank you Ms beautiful tammy

I would love that with some chopped walnuts on it!! Never made that before. I'm sure it was probably from the 70's, of which I made a lot of pudding desserts. Will be making that for sure, Melaney from SoCal

Yum yum, I remember this!! My Mama use to make this, we loved it!! Will have to surprise her & make one!!😊
