Tower Club Dallas' Banana Cheese Pie

This is better than your plain old average Banana Cream Pie, with this, you take the ordinary to the extra ordinary.



List of Ingredients




Pecan Pie Crust:
1/2 C. unsalted butter
1/4 C. brown sugar
1 C. all purpose flour
3/4 C. finely chopped pecans

Filling:
1 pound cream cheese, softened
2 Cs powdered sugar
1 Tbsp. unflavored gelatin
1 C. heavy cream, whipped stiffly
2 large bananas, sliced
juice of ½ lemon

Garnish:
1 C. whipped cream, whipped
Sliced bananas

Recipe



Mix pie crust ingredients until soft dough forms.

Press into 9-inch pie pan and bake at 350 degrees until golden brown, about 25 minutes. (The crust will still be soft to the touch but will harden as the crust cools.)

Remove from oven and let cool.

Beat together cream cheese, powered sugar and gelatin until stiff.

Fold in stiffly whipped cream.

Add sliced bananas, which have been tossed with lemon juice.

Pour into pecan pie crust. Refrigerate for 1½ to 2 hours.

Top with 1 cup whipped cream and garnish with additional sliced bananas brushed with lemon juice.
