Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, sliced

1 cup vanilla ice cream

½ cup chocolate ice cream

¼ cup strawberry ice cream

¼ cup chocolate sauce

¼ cup strawberry syrup

¼ cup whipped cream

2 tablespoons crushed nuts (such as walnuts or peanuts)

2 maraschino cherries (for garnish)

Instructions

Start by preparing your jars; choose mason jars or any clear glass containers for a beautiful presentation.

In the bottom of each jar, add a layer of sliced bananas, pressing them gently to fit.

Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the banana layer.

Next, add a scoop of chocolate ice cream and top it with a layer of chocolate sauce. Drizzle generously.

Follow with a scoop of strawberry ice cream and pour the strawberry syrup over it, allowing it to soak in slightly.

Top each jar with a generous swirl of whipped cream, ensuring it's fluffy and pillowy.

Sprinkle the crushed nuts over the whipped cream for a delightful crunch.

Finally, finish with a maraschino cherry on top of each jar for that classic banana split look.

Serve immediately or refrigerate for a short time before enjoying.
