How to Make Bananas Foster Cheesecake Squares
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 15x10x1 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, beat together 16 ounces cream cheese (softened), ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon until completely smooth and creamy.
- Add 2 large eggs and 2 large egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ cup chopped pecans, and 1 cup sliced bananas. Mix until just combined.
- Pour the cheesecake batter evenly over the graham cracker crust.
- Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden brown. A toothpick inserted near the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set completely.
- Once chilled, cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
