This dessert is my family's all-time favorite and super easy to make. Trust me if you make this once whoever eats it will beg you to make it all the time.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Ok, strawberries and bananas... that's two servings of fruit - right? This a quick & easy dessert. It's basically a brownie and banana split combined...the best of both worlds! Have napkins handy because it's a little messy but so yummy. We loved the flavors from the banana and pudding layer. The walnuts and chocolate drizzle are the perfect topping. It'll be a hit at your next cookout. This cool and creamy dessert will satisfy both the fruit and chocolate lover.

How To Make banana split brownie cake

  • Brownies baked in a pan.
    1
    Bake brownie mix as directed and let cool. I usually under cook my brownies just a little for a more chewy brownie.
  • Preparing the pudding.
    2
    Make instant pudding and chill until brownies are cooled.
  • Sliced bananas on top of the brownies.
    3
    Once brownies are cooled, slice the bananas right on top of the brownies until they have a nice layer all over.
  • Pouring the pudding on top of the bananas.
    4
    Pour the pudding on top of the bananas.
  • Cool Whip spread on top of the pudding.
    5
    Now, spread the Cool Whip on top of that.
  • Placing strawberries on top of the Cool Whip.
    6
    Slice up your strawberries and spread over the top. I chunk cut mine so you get a strawberry in every bite, lol.
  • Sprinkling walnuts on top of the dish.
    7
    Now, sprinkle your walnuts all over and you're done. Keep refrigerated until time to eat. Refrigerate for several hours before cutting.
  • A slice of Banana Split Brownie Cake on a plate with chocolate drizzled on top.
    8
    Sometimes I drizzle some chocolate syrup over the top too. If I'm really craving chocolaty goodness.
