Ingredients:

• 225g cream cheese
• 100g sugar
• 120g sour cream
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 ripe bananas
• 50g butter
• 50g brown sugar
• 50g chocolate sauce
• for serving

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• hand mixer
• springform pan
• skillet
• oven

To start, preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture into a greased springform pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.

While the cheesecake is baking, prepare the caramelized bananas. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Slice the ripe bananas and add them to the skillet with the brown sugar. Cook until the bananas are caramelized and golden brown.

Once the cheesecake is done baking, let it cool completely. Top the cheesecake with the caramelized bananas and drizzle with chocolate sauce. Serve slices of the cheesecake with a dollop of whipped cream on top.

This Caramelized Banana Split Cheesecake weighs approximately 1200g once cooked, serves 8, with one serving weighing around 150g. Each serving is estimated to be around 350 calories.

Unique Tip: For an extra indulgent touch, try adding a sprinkle of crushed peanuts on top of the cheesecake before serving. The nutty crunch adds a delicious contrast to the creamy cheesecake and sweet bananas.
