THE ULTIMATE BANANA SPLIT
Steps:
- Preheat your oil in a heavy-based pot for deep frying to 365 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Make a well in the center and add the yolks and club soda. Using a whisk, stir from the inside working your way out, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients without forming any lumps. Peel the bananas and dip in the batter and coat well. Fry in hot oil for 4-5 minutes until batter is puffy and golden brown. Drain on paper towels when done.
- While bananas are cooking, prepare caramel sauce. Combine the sugar and water in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Cook, swirling the pot around, until the mixture is a deep caramel color and looks like syrup, about 8 minutes. Add the butter then carefully pour in the cream (it will bubble up) and continue to cook for another minute. Add a pinch of salt then cool before serving.
- To serve the banana split, cut the bananas lengthwise and top with a large scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Pour warm caramel sauce over the top and finish with a sprinkle of banana chips and toasted pecans.

Steps:
- Coat a 13- x 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Stir together graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a medium bowl until combined. Firmly press graham cracker mixture onto bottom of prepared baking dish. Freeze, uncovered, while you prepare filling.
- Beat cream cheese and room temperature butter in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add vanilla and 2 cups of the powdered sugar, and beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Remove baking dish from freezer, and spoon cream cheese mixture over graham cracker mixture, smoothing with a spatula.
- Spoon drained crushed pineapple over cream cheese mixture, and top with sliced bananas. Beat heavy cream and remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Spoon 3 1/2 cups of the whipped cream over bananas, spreading into even layer. Sprinkle with pecans, and drizzle with hot fudge topping.
- Spoon remaining 1/2 cup whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a star tip, and pipe small rosettes over top of cake. Top each rosette with a maraschino cherry. Refrigerate, uncovered, until layers are set, about 2 hours. Garnish with sprinkles just before serving.
THE BEST BANANA CAKE
This banana cake is delectably moist, perfectly sweet and easy to make. Dark brown sugar and sour cream add depth to the batter, and we added melted butter instead of vegetable oil for a flavor boost. Fluffy cream cheese frosting and swirls of dulce de leche will make you go back for seconds. We also upped the ante by using bananas in two ways -- fresh bananas are mixed into the cake while maple-candied banana chips create a crunchy topping.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan (see Cook's Note) with aluminum foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the two longer sides. Lightly spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
- For the cake, mash the bananas in a large bowl with a fork or potato masher until very smooth. Whisk in the dark brown sugar, melted butter, sour cream, eggs and vanilla until smooth and combined. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture in thirds until just combined. Pour into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Leave the cake in the pan to cool slightly, about 30 minutes. Use the foil overhang to remove the cake from the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, beat the butter, cream cheese and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Reduce to low speed, then add the powdered sugar a cup at a time until smooth. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract.
- Transfer 1/2 cup of the frosting to a small bowl and stir in the dulce de leche until smooth. Cover both frostings with plastic wrap and keep at room temperature until ready to assemble the cake.
- For the candied banana chips, warm the maple syrup in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until it just starts bubbling. Add the banana chips and cook, tossing and stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until the chips have absorbed almost all the maple syrup and are browned in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Immediately transfer the banana chips to a baking sheet, spread in an even layer and cool completely. Once cool, roughly chop.
- Transfer the cake to a serving platter. Spread about 3/4 cup plain cream cheese frosting all over the top of the cake.
- Dollop the dulce de leche frosting and remaining plain frosting on top, then use a small offset spatula to swirl both frostings together in a swooping design, making sure the frosting goes all the way to the edges of the cake. Top with the chopped candied banana chips.

BANANA SPLIT CAKE
This is a fun, eye-pleasing cake that incorporates the classic flavors of a banana split. It can be served on its own but is best served "a la mode" with vanilla, chocolate or strawberry ice cream. It has layers of banana cake with a center layer of chocolate fudge frosting, sliced bananas and sliced strawberries. Then the top of the cake is finished with strawberry frosting and arranged, sliced strawberries. I think the embellishment of fresh fruit gives the cake a homemade appearance. No need to tell anyone you used a cake mix and prepared frosting! (Note: If you can't find banana cake mix, substitute with yellow cake mix, reduce water to 1 cup and add one extra mashed banana). Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Prepare three 9-inch round cake pans by coating with cooking spray and dusting with flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, water, mashed banana and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Pour cake batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted into centers of each cake comes out clean. Cool cakes on a wire rack until completely cooled. Turn cakes out. With a wide knife, slice off rounded tops of cakes until top surfaces are flat.
- Slice bananas and hull/slice strawberries; set aside. I always reserve three large strawberries, slice them into fans and set them aside for garnishing.
- Place first cake layer on serving plate/pedestal. Spread generously with chocolate frosting to 1/4-inch from the outside edge of the cake. Arrange a thin layer of sliced strawberries and then bananas atop the frosting. Place second cake layer atop these layers and repeat once more.
- Place third cake layer on top. Spread top of cake only (not down sides of cake) with a generous layer of strawberry frosting. Then arrange sliced strawberries in the pattern of your choice atop frosting. I like to make three strawberry fans and arrange them in the center of the cake with circles of overlapping strawberries radiating outward.
- Slice and serve with a scoop of the ice cream of your choice. Refrigerate until ready to serve, and store left-overs in refrigerator for up to 24 hours. If you plan to store longer, please note the strawberries and banana slices may soften or discolor.
