Ingredients

• 0.75 cup unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 ripe bananas
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 3.4-ounce package vanilla pudding mix
• 1.5 cups milk
• 1 8-ounce container whipped topping
• 0 chocolate shavings or sprinkles (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually mix in the melted chocolate mixture until fully combined.

Step 4

Add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until just incorporated, being careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let it cool completely.

Step 6

Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Set aside.

Step 7

In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.

Step 8

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the banana-cream cheese mixture.

Step 9

In another bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Fold the pudding into the banana-cream cheese mixture.

Step 10

Spread the banana cream layer evenly over the cooled brownie base.

Step 11

Top the banana cream layer with an even layer of whipped topping. Garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles, if desired.

Step 12

Refrigerate the assembled dessert for at least 2 hours or until set. Cut into squares and serve chilled.
