Banana Pudding Icebox Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Line the base and sides of a 9-inch springform cake pan with parchment paper.
• For the whipped cream:.
• In a large bowl, whip heavy cream and powdered sugar using a whisk until you get soft peaks. Set aside.
• For the banana filling:.
• In another large bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, milk, and banana pudding mix until smooth.
• Gently fold half of the whipped cream (roughly 2 1/2 cups) into the banana pudding mixture using a spatula until combined.
• For the vanilla filling:.
• In another large bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar, milk and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream until combined.
• Assembly:.
• Spread 1/3 of the banana filling into the base of the cake pan in an even layer.
• Spread 1/2 of the vanilla filling in an even layer over the banana filling layer.
• Place the 1/4 cup of milk into a shallow bowl. Dip half of the vanilla wafers in the milk and arrange over the vanilla filling layer.
• Spread another 1/3 of the banana filling layer over the wafers.
• Arrange the banana slices over the banana filling layer.
• Spread the last 1/3 of the banana filling over the sliced bananas.
• Spread the remaining vanilla filling mixture over the banana filling in an even layer.
• Place the remaining vanilla wafer cookies into a resealable food bag and crush with a rolling pin until you get fine crumbs. Sprinkle the wafer crumbs over the top of the vanilla layer.
• Place into the freezer for at least 4 hours until firm.
• Serve:.
• Remove the cake from the freezer about 20 minutes before you want to serve it. Unclip the side and remove from the pan. Peel away the parchment paper from the sides. Decorate with shell-shaped chocolates and palm tree shaped drink umbrellas.
• After 20 minutes, use a large, sharp knife that has been dipped in very hot water to cut the cake.

Steps:

• Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch round cake pan with long pieces of plastic wrap. Whip the cream to stiff peaks in a large bowl with a mixer. Slice the bananas about 1/4 inch thick.
• Spread one-third of the whipped cream on the bottom of the pan. Cover with half of the banana slices in concentric circles, then top with half of the animal crackers in concentric circles. Repeat with another layer of whipped cream, bananas and crackers. Finish with the remaining whipped cream. Wrap up the cake and refrigerate overnight to let the crackers soften.
• To serve, unwrap the cake and invert it onto a plate. Thinly slice the remaining banana. Garnish the cake with the banana slices arranged around the edge and a few animal crackers in the middle.

Steps:

• In a blender, puree the diced strawberries with 1 to 2 tablespoons water until thick and smooth. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream until soft peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and strawberry puree and continue whipping until slightly stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes.
• For each dessert, place a chocolate cookie on a plate. Dollop with 1 tablespoon of the strawberry whipped cream; gently press another cookie on top. Repeat, alternating cookies and whipped cream, to make a stack 6 cookies high, ending with a cookie. Wrap lightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until the cookies soften slightly, 3 to 4 hours. Cover and refrigerate the remaining whipped cream.
• Just before serving, use an offset spatula or butter knife to smooth the sides of the cakes. Top each cake with a few strawberry and banana slices and some of the remaining whipped cream. Drizzle with chocolate syrup. Sprinkle with peanuts and top with a maraschino cherry.

Steps:

• Line a 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan with plastic, so there's a fair amount of overhang.
• Add the malted milk powder and salt to a bowl. Add a splash of cream and whisk. Add another splash of cream and whisk. Continue this until you've added all the cream. (This ensures that the malted milk powder gets evenly distributed and doesn't get all lumpy and weird.) Continue to whip the cream until stiff peaks form. (A balloon or cage whisk helps, if you have one.).
• Add a single layer of wafers to the bottom of the loaf pan. Top with a layer of whipped cream. Add a single layer of bananas. Top with a layer of whipped cream. Repeat this until you've used all the cream-making sure to end with the cream. If it starts to rise above the loaf pan, that's fine! Even good. Fold the extra plastic over the icebox cake. If it doesn't completely cover the surface, add more plastic wrap.
• Chill for at least 12 hours or up to 36.
• To unmold, peel away the plastic from the top. Carefully-but confidently-turn the loaf pan onto a plate or serving platter. Peel away the plastic. Slice into thick slabs and eat cold.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F; grease a bundt pan and set aside.

Heat the mixture over medium, stirring constantly, until it has thickened and just come to a low boil, about 4 to 5 minutes. Continue to cook the custard while whisking for another minute, then immediately pour it into the sieve, pushing it through with a small spatula. Stir in the vanilla.
• Chill the custard until it reaches room temperature or colder, about 1 1/2 hours. (To speed the process, you can spread the custard into an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Stir often until the custard has cooled, about 10 minutes. Transfer the custard back to the medium bowl.)
• Whip the 3/4 cup heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold the cream into the custard.
• Add about 1/2 cup of custard to the bottom of a 2-quart serving dish, spreading it in an even layer. Top with a layer of cookies (about 15), breaking them as needed to fit the edges. Slice the bananas 1/4-inch thick, and top the cookies with a layer of bananas.
• Dollop 1/3 of the remaining custard on top of the bananas and, using an offset spatula, gently spread it into an even layer until the bananas are completely covered. Repeat the layering of cookies, bananas and custard two more times, finishing with custard.
• Cover with plastic wrap and chill until the custard is cold and the cookies have softened, at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours.
• To serve, whip the 1 1/2 cups heavy cream and confectioners' sugar to medium-stiff peaks. Top the pudding with the whipped cream, and sprinkle with cocoa powder, dusting it through a fine-mesh sieve. Serve cold.
