Treat Tuesday #4...

Tuesday Treat -
Ice Cream Banana Split Dessert

A family favorite.  We served this up at my daughter's going-away party this past Sunday.

She is leaving for Nebraska.  More on that in tomorrow's post!

* 2 to 3 bananas, sliced (in circles)                         *2 cups confectioners' sugar

*1 cup chopped walnuts                                           *1 tsp. vanilla
*1 cup chocolate chips                                             *Cool Whip

-Cover bottom of a 9 x 13-inch pan with 1 cup graham crackers.
