Assembly Directions:

For each recipe, cover bottom of a 9x13 pan with 14 graham cracker squares.  (Crush the rest of the squares for the topping.)  Slice bananas crosswise and lay them in single layer over crust.  Slice the ice cream in 3/4” slices and place over bananas.  Sprinkle ice cream with nuts and put pan in the freezer.

 

Melt chocolate chips and butter/margarine in a saucepan over medium heat.  Add powdered sugar and evaporated milk.  Cook until thick and smooth, stirring constantly.  Cool in refrigerator or by setting the pan in cold water.  Pour chocolate syrup over ice cream and return to freezer.  Prepare whipping cream according to package directions and spread over chilled chocolate layer.  Top with graham cracker crumbs.  Cover with plastic wrap and/or foil and place pan into 2 gallon freezer bag.

 

Serving Directions:

Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving.  (It thaws quickly!)  Cut into squares and enjoy!

 

Comments:

This dessert takes awhile to make because of the three trips into the freezer.  It’s best to do it way ahead of time and pull it out as the guests are finishing their main course.  Yummy!
