How to Make Banana Split Ice Cream Tart

Step 1:

In a food processor, add 3 cups of Oreo cookies and process into fine crumbs.

Add 1/2 cup of unsalted butter to the fine Oreo crumbs and process until well combined.

Step 3:

Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch tart tin. Firmly press the mixture on the bottom and sides of the tin. Place in the fridge to chill while making the filling.

Step 4:

Peel the bananas and add to a bowl. Mash them with a fork or whisk. Set aside.

Step 5:

In a different bowl, add 2 blocks of cream cheese, 1 cup of caster sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and mashed bananas. Whisk for about 3 minutes using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth. Scrape down the bottom and sides, then add 2 cups of heavy cream. Whisk for about 4 or 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Set half of the mixture aside.

Step 6:

Add 2 drops of yellow food gel to the remaining mixture then whisk to combine.
