I could have given you one of any cheesecake recipes but I decided to hook you up with this. The blondie bottom is flavored with mashed bananas. I seriously could have made a batch of these perfectly chewy and full flavored blondies and ate them warm out of the oven because they are that good but I didn’t stop there.
Key Ingredients
Blondie Crust Ingredients:
- Melted unsalted butter, because everything’s better with butter.
- Packed light brown sugar for a touch of molasses magic.
- A large egg yolk – the golden ticket to richness.
- All-purpose flour to hold all that goodness together.
- Just a pinch of salt to make all the flavors pop.
- Mashed ripe banana for that creamy, dreamy tropical twist.
- A splash of pure vanilla extract for that sweet aroma.
Cheesecake Topping Ingredients:
- Heavy whipped cream to bring the fluff and puff to the party.
- Cream cheese, not one but two blocks, because more is always better.
- Granulated sugar to sweeten up your life.
- Instant banana pudding powder to infuse that unmistakable banana charm.
- Milk to blend it all into creamy perfection.
- A teaspoon of vanilla extract for that kiss of vanilla love.
How to Make Banana Pudding Cheesecake
For the Blondie Crust:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a 8×8 baking pan with non-stick method of your choice.
- In a large bowl, whisk together butter and sugar until combined. Next whisk in the egg yolk, flour, salt, banana and vanilla until well combined.
- Add blondie batter to pan and bake for 15-20 minutes until just set.
- Cool to room temperature and prepare topping.
For the Cheesecake Topping:
- Using your hand mixer, whip heavy cream in a medium sized bowl until stiff peaks develop then refrigerate and clean beaters.
- In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until nice and fluffy with hand mixer.
- Slowly add in the sugar, banana pudding powder, milk, and vanilla extract. Beat until well incorporated.
- Carefully fold pre-made whipped cream into the cream cheese batter.
- Taste and add a little powdered sugar if you prefer it a little sweeter.
- Pour and evenly spread cheesecake topping over blondie crust and freeze for at least 6 hours (overnight is best) or until completely firm.
- Garnish with nilla wafers and serve.
How To Store
To keep those Banana Pudding Cheesecake Bars with their no-bake topping pristine, snug them into an airtight container and slide them into the fridge. They’ll stay fresh and fabulous for up to 5 days. Just remember to give them a little chill time before serving – they’re best enjoyed cool!
