BANANA SPLIT CAKE

This recipe was given to me by a family friend many years ago when my children were young (I now have 7 grandchildren.)

First Layer:
2 cups crushed graham cracker crumbs
2/3 cup margarine, melted

Mix together and press into the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan. (A Tupperware oblong pan with lid works great for this.)

Second Layer:
2 sticks margarine, softened to room temperature
2 eggs OR 1/2 cup egg substitute
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Third Layer:
3 large bananas, sliced and dipped in pineapple juice

Fourth Layer:
1 can (16 oz) crushed pineapple, drained - use the juice for the bananas

Fifth Layer:
2 pkgs Dream Whip, prepared according to the package directions.

Sixth Layer:
Sprinkle with chopped nuts and halved maraschino cherries.

Cover and keep refrigerated.
