Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup mashed ripe banana
- Extra whipped topping, for garnish
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 banana, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 cup crushed vanilla wafers
- Mini vanilla wafers or crushed cookie crumbs, for garnish
Directions:
- Prepare the Crust:
Mix crushed vanilla wafers and melted butter in a bowl until the texture resembles wet sand. Spoon evenly into a lined 12-cup muffin tin and press firmly to form crusts. - Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until completely smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk, mashed banana, and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy, then gently fold in the whipped topping. - Assemble the Cheesecakes:
Place one banana slice over each crust. Spoon or pipe the cheesecake mixture on top, filling each cup to the brim. Smooth the tops with a spatula if needed. - Chill to Set:
Refrigerate the cheesecakes for 1–2 hours until fully set. For a firmer texture, freeze them for 30 minutes before serving. - Garnish and Serve:
Before serving, add a dollop of whipped topping and garnish with a mini vanilla wafer or crushed cookie crumbs.
