First Question: Would your mother love it, if you gave her a White Chocolate Banana Cream Pie for her special day, Mom's Day?
Wait...Is this even a fair question?
It's obvious the answer is *Heck Yes!!*
2nd Question: Do you like to make easy desserts, make life a little easier? Again, obvious, *Heck Yes!* Here's a real simple recipe and it tastes phenomenal! It only takes 20-25 minutes to put it all together.
Love cream pies? You would love this Amish Peanut Butter Cream Pie! It's one the best ever! If you're the chocoholic, go for the Dark Chocolate Silk Pie! It’s Delectable and for the lemon lovers, this Luscious Lemon Sour Cream Pie!
The hardest part is waiting for for the pie it to set up...
But don't fret yet! You don't have to wait overnight or anything that long, just an hour or so. *Whew* *Sweating bullets!*
Here's the scoop! The graham cracker crust is thick and buttery, the white chocolate fluff is creamy and delicious, fresh thick slices of bananas and a fresh whipped cream piped rose border makes this dessert look so mouth-watering and stunning.
To make the rose border I bought this set of Russian Tips
and here is a short video how to make them. Otherwise, if you don't have one of these flower tips, just pipe the border with a star border or dollop some whipped cream on top. It will look and taste delicious!
Mom will love you for it too! (You can substitute this pie with a different fruit, if you want as well.)

If I'm using fresh bananas in a dessert, if they are on top of the dessert, I usually don't add them until I'm ready to serve. You can soak them in lemon, pineapple or grapefruit juice. And you can wrap the stem with saran wrap. This technique prevents the gas from escaping and slows down the ripening process for a bit. Hope these tips help Joanne! 😀
How do you keep your banana's from turning brown? If I see that in a banana dessert, I don't eat it. I know...probably one of the
weird one. Lol
