How to Make Banana Pineapple Cheesecake Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Crust:**
- Combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, 6 tablespoons melted butter, and ¼ cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 13x9-inch baking pan.
- **Filling:**
- In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces cream cheese until smooth.
- Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until well combined.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Gently fold in 2 ripe mashed bananas (about 1 cup) and ½ cup crushed pineapple, drained.
- Pour the filling over the prepared crust.
- **Baking:**
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is just set. The edges will be lightly golden.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the bars to set completely.
- **Topping:**
- Before serving, drizzle with your favorite melted semi-sweet baking chocolate (about 4 ounces).
