| Delicious desserts just always seem to put a smile on our faces. Whether you're having a great day or need a bit of perking up, dessert is the dish that just puts a delightful spin on our world, and for that reason, we're so pleased to have Robin Sue from Big Red Kitchen here to share her oh-so-tempting Banana Split Pie recipe with us. Big Red Kitchen's Banana Split Pie Ingredients: 2 sticks butter 2 cups powdered sugar 2 pasteurized eggs* Purchased Oreo pie crust 2 bananas sliced thinly 8 ounce can crushed pineapple, drained very well 1 1/2 cups whipping cream 2 T. powdered sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract 2 T. melted butter 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Maraschino cherries Optional toppings: wet nuts, marshmallow cream, strawberry sauce Preparation: In a stand mixer bowl place the first three ingredients and using the paddle attachment on medium speed, beat for 20 minutes until smooth, light yellow, and fluffy. Spread into pie crust and top with sliced bananas and pineapple. Wash mixer bowl and place in it, whipping cream, 2 T. powdered sugar, and vanilla. Using the whisk attachment beat until just stiff, careful not to make butter. Spread the whipped cream over the entire pie. To melted butter stir in the chocolate chips until smooth and melted, then drizzle over the entire pie. Gently cover or place in a pie holder and refrigerate for 8 hours. When ready to serve slice pie with sharp knife being sure to cut all the way through the crust. Place the pieces on plates and drizzle with your other favorite Banana Split toppings like strawberry sauce, marshmallow sauce, or wet nuts. Top each with a cherry and serve. Serves 8. *Note- When using pasteurized eggs, you may want to crack them in a separate bowl first as pieces of the shell tend to end up in there with the innards. To get shell pieces out of your eggs, use the empty shell half to scoop out the pieces. The pieces won't "run away" from the shell like they do your spoon or finger. |
