Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas, sliced

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1 cup vanilla wafer cookies, crushed

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Optional: extra banana slices and crushed nuts for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Banana: In a medium bowl, toss the sliced bananas with lemon juice. This will prevent them from browning and enhance their flavor.

    Make the Cream Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

      Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated.

        Assemble the Cups: In serving cups or small bowls, layer the bottom with a generous amount of crushed vanilla wafer cookies. Follow this with a layer of the cream mixture. Then, add a layer of sliced bananas. Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, finishing with the cream mixture on top.

          Chill: Cover the cups with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the cups to set.

            Serve: Before serving, garnish each cup with extra banana slices and a sprinkle of crushed nuts if desired for added texture.

              Enjoy: Dig into these delicious and creamy banana cups for a refreshing treat!
