Banana Split Bombe

SERVES: 16

CHILL TIME: 5 Hr

Ready to run down to the ice cream parlor and order up a fruit-filled sundae? Save your energy, 'cause you'll be "bowled over" by the shape this one's in. Our Banana Split Bombe is a fun version of an all-American Classic.

What You'll Need

1/2 gallon Neapolitan ice cream
1 (12 ounce) jar hot fudge sauce
2 bananas, sliced
1 (12 ounce) jar pineapple preserves
2 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed

What to Do

Divide 3 flavors of ice cream and allow to soften slightly.
Line a 3- to 4-quart bowl with plastic wrap. Spread chocolate ice cream in bottom of bowl. Top with a layer of fudge topping and 1 sliced banana. Spread strawberry ice cream over banana, then top with pineapple preserves and remaining sliced banana. Spread vanilla ice cream over top, then cover and freeze at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Remove from freezer and invert onto a serving platter. Remove bowl and plastic wrap, then frost with whipped topping and return to freezer at least 1 hour, until topping has frozen. Serve or cover and keep frozen until ready to serve.

Notes

After slicing, top each serving with a cherry to give it a banana split finishing touch.

I just put this together in a smaller quart size bowl, a 1 1/2 quart bowl since there's only 2 of us now - the kids all flew the coup! I found out you can limit the portion sizes of the ice cream flavors as you go along, so this is manageable for a lesser size bowl. I also used what I had in the fridge a jar of pineapple topping (same as preserves), so its the same thing and is better to spread, also. I still had some Neopolitan ice cream left from the smaller portions, too. I'm anxious to see how this smaller portion turns out like the above recipe and will further comment on that. Happy Desert eating!
