Chilled Banana Split Cheesecake is a creamy, no-bake dessert that combines the classic flavors of a banana split in a cheesecake form. With a graham cracker crust, cream cheese filling, and topped with bananas, maraschino cherries, pineapple, and chocolate syrup, it’s a fun and indulgent treat.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup melted butter

2 cups cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

2 bananas, sliced

1/4 cup maraschino cherries

1/4 cup chocolate syrup

1/4 cup crushed pineapple (drained)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form a crust. Press down firmly to ensure the crust is compact and even.
  2. Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. Combine the Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the prepared graham cracker crust.
  6. Add the Toppings: Top the cheesecake with banana slices, maraschino cherries, crushed pineapple, and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
  7. Chill: Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set and firm up.
  8. Serve: Serve chilled and enjoy this sweet, refreshing treat!

Notes

For a vegan version, use dairy-free cream cheese and coconut cream in place of heavy cream.

Add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans to the graham cracker crust for extra texture.

Use a chocolate cookie crust for a deeper chocolate flavor.

If you want extra chocolate, drizzle more syrup or mix chocolate chips into the filling.
