Brief Description
Sweet and Salty! While I am not a fan of plain, old pretzel sticks, the pretzel crust on this Salted Caramel Banana Cream Pie is kind of to die for. In fact, this dessert may be borderline illegal in it’s delicious-ness. This recipe is pretty easy and took just a little over an hour to make.

Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cups - Butter (1.5 sticks) melted
- 2 cups - Pretzels finely-crushed in food processor
- 2 tablespoons - Sugar
- 1 1/2 - Banana sliced
- 3 containers - Yoplait Banana Yogurt
- 1 cups - Heavy Cream
- 1/2 cups - Philadelphia Cream Cheese whipped
- 1/4 cups - Sugar
- 24 - Kraft Caramels unwrapped
- 2 tablespoons - Heavy Cream
- 1 tablespoons - Sea Salt coarse
Directions:
For the Crust:
Preheat oven to 375*
In a large mixing bowl, combine pretzels, butter and 2 tbsp sugar until texture is crumbly. Press the mixture into the pan or pie plate and bake for 8 minutes. Cool completely. Layer sliced bananas across the bottom of the crust.
For The Filling:
Place all filling ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine. Continue mixing until soft peaks form. Set the filling in the fridge to chill.
For The Caramel Sauce:
Place the caramels in a small saucepan over low to medium heat, and stir until just melted through. Do not allow the caramel to brown (watch closely). Once melted, add the heavy cream and salt and combine. Remove from heat immediately and cool to room temperature.
Assembly:
Once the crust is cooled, place filling in the crust and then drizzle with the caramel sauce. Sprinkle the top with a tiny bit of coarse salt and garnish with a couple of slices of banana {optional}. Enjoy!
