Ingredients

• 3 ripe bananas
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 8 sheets graham crackers
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup whipped cream (optional, for topping)
• 0.25 cup chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Crush 8 graham cracker sheets into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.

Step 3

Melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Combine the melted butter with the crushed graham crackers in a mixing bowl, stirring until the mixture is evenly moistened.

Step 4

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a parchment-lined 8x8-inch baking dish to form a crust. Bake for 8–10 minutes, then set aside to cool.

Step 5

While the crust cools, slice 3 ripe bananas into 1/4-inch rounds.

Step 6

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt 1.5 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips in 20-second increments, stirring between each, until smooth.

Step 7

Spread 1 cup of creamy peanut butter evenly over the cooled graham cracker crust.

Step 8

Layer the banana slices over the peanut butter layer, ensuring full coverage.

Step 9

Drizzle the melted chocolate over the banana slices, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 10

In a separate bowl, whisk together 0.5 cup of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract with the remaining melted chocolate, if there’s any leftover, or simply sprinkle powdered sugar over the top for extra sweetness.

Step 11

Optional: Allow the dessert to set in the fridge for 20–30 minutes for easier slicing. Before serving, add whipped cream and sprinkle chopped peanuts on top for garnish.

Step 12

Cut into squares or rectangles and serve immediately. Enjoy your Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Train Wreck!
