Wild, Wild Life!!

Today has just been the craziest of days. All kinds of work stuff. Tomorrow is my coworker, Zinia's birthday. So we've birthday-ed all day long. I made a bannana split cake to celebrate the occassion. It's so yummy, but not heavy at all. It was a HUGE hit with everyone. I don't have time to post much else today, but I will post the recipe for you all. I'll have a better post tomorrow. Everyone have a good evening and enjoy the recipe. It is YUMMY!!

Banana Split “Cake”

Use 9 x 13 pan.

1st Layer: 2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1 stick melted butter

Mix together and pat in bottom of pan.

2nd Layer: 2 cups confectioners sugar (10X)

2 eggs

2 sticks margarine

1-1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Mix at high speed 20 full minutes. Spread on top of 1st layer.

3rd Layer: Spread 2 large cans drained crushed pineapple on top of 2nd layer.

4th Layer: Place 4 large bananas, sliced, on top of 3rd layer.

5th Layer: Spread 16 ounces of Cool Whip on top of 4th layer.

6th Layer: Drain and place on top of Cool Whip on small jar of maraschino cherries.

7th Layer: Drizzle Hershey’s syrup on top of 6th layer and sprinkle chopped walnuts. Refrigerate overnight or place in freezer 4 hours.

Personally, I like to add a layer of sliced strawberries over the layer of bananas!
