Banana Split Dump and Go Pie
I tried to fight it. I really did! But I have NO willpower. Does anyone relate?
I have been fighting my demons and keeping my sugar intake down, but Pi Day is here.
You know, the once in a lifetime day when the perfect number for the mathematical term Pi coincides with the calendar? You can’t just ignore it. Its fate. Karma.
I had everything I needed stocked in the fridge.
These are the INGREDIENTS you will need:
- 2 Oreo Cookie Crusts 8″ Handmade or store bought.
- 1 Philadelphia Cheesecake filling 24.3 oz, divided
- 1 jar marachino cherries stems removed, save juice, 10 oz each
- 1 jar Smuckers pineapple topping 12 oz
- 1 jar Breyers Real Fruit cherry topping 8.4 oz
- 4 bananas
- 1 Fisher nut topping 5 oz
- hershey syrup
- chocolate sprinkles
- 1 small can whipped cream
These are the INSTRUCTIONS for preparation:
- Cut bananas lengthwise into 4 lengths each, place in pie shells to cover bottom.
- Drain cherries and soak up excess moisture by placing cherries on paper towel for a few minutes until read to use them. Cut cherries in half through the center.
- In large bowl combine cheesecake filling, pineapple topping, cherry topping and cool whip. Mix by hand until well blended. Pour into pie crust.
- Make even amounts of swirls around pie. Start in center and fill the middle with chocolate syrup spreading thin until covering middle.
- Sprinkle nuts all over top of pie.
- Place dried cherries flat side down in each of the whip cream swirls.
- Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. Return left over pie to refigerator.
I had the cheesecake tubs that are already to go from the dairy section of my favorite store.
Bananas, maraschino cherries, pineapple, whip cream, nuts and oreos to make the crust were all on hand.
Even the chocolate syrup drizzled on the top was ready to go.
It was Friday the 13th! I gave in. I made a pie. Well, two actually.
They were small. No Bake. Yummy.
And I was a bit naughty. I enjoyed getting down and dirty in the whipped cream.
Come on over and have a piece!
I have plenty of Irish Whiskey coffee and tea to share. C’mon, you know you want to!

Thank you for visiting, Cathy! I seriously published this recipe to make 2 pies because I always get requests for more! And unexpected company stops by for coffee! Enjoy. See you at the next Making Memories Mondays!
Looks amazing! Good thing we don’t have “Pi Day” more often! Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe with us at the Inspire Me Mondays Link-Up. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and look forward to seeing you around!
Thank you Bridget for stopping by and for the kind words. Please come again. I love your party!
oh my you did it now! yummy! Never would have thought to toss the ingredients for a banana split into a pie! of course anything with chocolate and cream cheese has to be delish! I could probably eat this whole pie by myself! nom 🙂
Kristina you are a girl after my own heart! That is exactly why this recipe makes TWO pies! One to eat while you are baking, and the other to have something to serve when the aroma gives you away as having made it! I have answers for all the tricks! LOL. Thanks for commenting!
Would have been a great pie to make on Saturday for Pi Day but I missed it. Next time!
Thx Andy for all you do. Much appreciated. And you can leave the comments, like to aee your smiling face!

Thank you Monica for commemting! Sorry you had so much trouble trying to comment. Somewhere a setting is throwing all comments into my spam, but I think I have it fixed now. Please feel free to come by for coffee and recipes anytime! The Welcome Mat is always on the porch.
I would never have thought of making this but it sounds gooey and delicious.
Thanks Maureen! I was wanting something quick and easy. Literally dump-n-go to take to a Charity Pie Auction. I was out of my mind offering 4 pies, not remembering that to auction 4 you needed to bring an extra 4 to cut up as samples to taste! They were good, and sold for $40.00 each. I did a little jig.
Oh my gosh Marilyn, I just got this update and I had to come see, I’ll take a piece please. Whew this looks good! I bet that is one heavy pie with all the ingredients!
I think your post would be enjoyed on my Friday Feature Linky party,
if you would like to share, I would love to have you stop by!!
Have a great weekend!

Thank you so much Karren! It is a definite recipe to use sparingly, but oh so worth the wait! Thanks for visiting!
