How to Make Banana Split Cake

  1. Combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted butter. Mix well.
  2. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking pan.
  3. Freeze for 10 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese and ¾ cup granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  5. Carefully spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust.
  6. Top with 1 cup drained crushed pineapple.
  7. Slice 4 medium bananas lengthwise into halves or thirds, depending on size. Arrange them over the pineapple layer.
  8. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups milk and 2 (3.4 ounce) instant vanilla pudding mixes until smooth and thickened (about 2 minutes).
  9. Gently fold in 1 cup whipped topping.
  10. Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the banana layer.
  11. Top with the remaining 1 cup whipped topping.
  12. Sprinkle generously with ½ cup chopped pecans.
  13. Refrigerate for at least 5 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the cake to set completely.
  14. Just before serving, slice the remaining 2 bananas and arrange them on top of the cake.
