How to Make Banana Split Cheesecake Squares

  1. **Make the crust:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, 6 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, and ¼ cup granulated sugar. Mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  4. **Prepare the filling:** In a large bowl, beat 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gradually add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
  6. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
  7. Beat in 4 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  8. Gently fold in 2 ripe bananas, mashed.
  9. Pour the filling over the prepared crust.
  10. **Bake:** Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
  11. **Cool and chill:** Let the cheesecake cool completely in the baking dish on a wire rack. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely.
  12. **Create the banana split topping:** Before serving, top the cooled cheesecake with sliced strawberries, sliced bananas, and pineapple chunks.
  13. Drizzle with melted semi-sweet chocolate chips and sprinkle with chopped pecans or walnuts, if desired.
