Recipe
In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup butter, sugar, milk and chocolate chips. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil and stir for 8 minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely.
Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter; toss with cookie crumbs. Press into a greased 13 x 9 x 2-inch dish. Freeze for 15 minutes.
Arrange banana slices over crust; spread with 1 quart ice cream. Top with 1 cup of chocolate sauce. Freeze for 1 hour. Refrigerate remaining chocolate sauce.
Spread the remaining ice cream over dessert; top with pineapple, cherries and peanuts. Cover and freeze several hours or overnight. Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. Reheat the chocolate sauce. Cut dessert into squares; serve with chocolate sauce and a dollop of sweetened whipped cream, if desired.
Makes 12 to 15 servings.
