Banana Bread Cheesecake
Moist banana bread topped with a tangy vanilla cheesecake, this Banana Bread Cheesecake is the best of both worlds. You'll never have to choose between desserts again! The banana bread acts as a "crust" for the no-bake cheesecake and the sweet flavor perfectly balances the tart cheesecake. Serve topped with caramel sauce and pecans.
