This lovely and delightful dessert has the classic flavor of a banana split. It's a cool, creamy treat with no last-minute fuss since you just pull it from the freezer. It always solicits praise from our big family. -Marye Franzen, Gothenburg, Nebraska

Ingredients

  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup butter, divided
  • 24 Oreo cookies, crushed
  • 3 to 4 medium firm bananas, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 2 quarts vanilla ice cream, softened, divided
  • 1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 jar (10 ounces) maraschino cherries, drained and halved
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • Whipped topping, optional

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine sugar, milk, chocolate chips and 1/2 cup butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
  2. Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter; toss with cookie crumbs. Press into a greased 13x9-in. pan. Freeze for 15 minutes. Arrange banana slices over crust; spread with 1 quart ice cream. Top with 1 cup chocolate sauce. Freeze for 1 hour. Refrigerate remaining chocolate sauce. Spread the remaining ice cream over dessert; top with pineapple, cherries and pecans. Cover and freeze overnight.
