Frozen Banana Split Squares

Recipe adapted from Paula Deen by Our Best Bites and then further adapted by me.

At least once a year we have a Sundae bar. We get all the fixings... I make up a batch of fresh whipped cream...and everyone makes their sundae just the way they like it.

But then I have a whole bunch of leftover fixings.

I discovered a great way to use them up.
I made Frozen Banana Split squares with them!
Usually the only extra thing I have to buy is the box of ice cream sandwiches and sometimes the crushed pineapple. This recipe, however, is adaptable. You could just make it out of whatever you have left from your sundae bar. In fact, the amounts in this recipe is only approximate to give you an idea, but I just use whatever amount you have left over.

12 3.5 oz. ice cream sandwiches
3-4 medium bananas
1/2 hot fudge sauce
1/2 caramel sauce
1 c. chopped maraschino cherries or sliced strawberries or a mixture of the two
the rest of the whipped cream
1 small can crushed pineapple, undrained
2 Butterfinger bars, crushed or a 1/2 cup of anything else you have leftover from the sundae bar like chopped nuts, etc.


Line the bottom of a 9x13" baking dish with the ice cream sandwiches, cutting them to fit as necessary. Slice the bananas into pieces about 1/4" thick and arrange over the sandwiches. Spread the hot fudge and caramel sauces over the bananas. Sprinkle with cherries or strawberries (or both, if desired). Combine the whipped cream with the can of undrained pineapple and spread over everything. Sprinkle with crushed candy bars and freeze for at least 4 hours. When ready to serve, cut into 12 pieces and serve immediately, freezing any leftovers.
If there are any.
