Ingredients:
- 9 oz oatmeal cookies
- 2.5 oz melted butter
- 14 oz cream cheese
- 1.8 oz sugar
- 11 oz 30% heavy cream
- 2 bananas
- 7 oz pineapple
- chocolate sauce for topping
- cherries in syrup for decoration
Instructions:
Step 1. Blend or crush the cookies very finely and transfer them to a bowl. Add the melted butter and mix. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and press the cookie mixture into the tray to form the base. Place it in the refrigerator.
Step 2. Mix the cream cheese with the sugar, and separately whip the cream. Combine the cream cheese and whipped cream. Spread half of this mixture on the cookie base.
Step 3. Layer banana slices and chopped pineapple pieces on top of the cream layer. Spread the remaining cream mixture evenly over the entire cake. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
Step 4. Decorate the cake with cherries and chocolate sauce, then cut into pieces. Enjoy!
