Filling
Ingredients
- 1 cup whipping cream or topping
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 Tbsp. cocoa
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 large firm banana, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup maraschino cherries, cut up
- additional whipped topping

Beat topping, sugar and cocoa until stiff peaks form. Fold in the walnuts, banana and cherries. Spoon into crust. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Garnish the edges with topping chocolate curls and cherries. This tastes similar to a banana split.
