Step-by-Step Instructions
To begin making my No Bake Banana Split Cake, I first grab my favorite mixing bowl and combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter. This creates a wonderfully easy crust that serves as a sturdy foundation for all those delectable layers. Once mixed, I press this crust mixture firmly into the bottom of my baking dish to create an even base. For the perfect texture, I really like to pack it down gently with a measuring cup. This will hold everything together beautifully! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
