Method

  1. Several hours before, place 2 bananas in the freezer until the skins go black, then remove and defrost. You'll be left with really soft bananas. Peel, then mash well and set aside.
  2. Mix the butter and biscuits together, then press into a 22cm springform cake tin. Whip the cream until it just holds its shape. In a separate bowl, beat the sugar, soft cheese and vanilla together until completely combined. In another bowl, beat the peanut butter to loosen it.
  3. Fold the cheese mixture into the peanut butter, then tip in the mashed banana and gently fold in the cream. Spread the mix over the biscuit base and smooth the top. Freeze for several hours or preferably overnight. To serve, leave the cake in the fridge for 20 mins, then run a knife around the side and remove the sides of the tin. Slice the remaining banana and use to decorate the cheesecake.

    It did use up a lot of bowls and space, but it went down amazingly well, guests were almost fighting over it! Only had it in the freezer for about an hour and half and the texture was about right after that amount of time.

    This went down a storm at work. I would however double up next time on the biscuit base as it seems too thin with such rich topping. I am going to add nutella next time as a 50/50 split to see if this is a interesting twist.

    This is fabulous. I agree on doubling the biscuit base. I decorate it with chocolate buttons.
