Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups vanilla wafers crushed
  • 1/2 cup walnuts finely chopped
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 4 ounces unsalted butter melted

Filling

  • 24 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 cup strawberries diced
  • 1 cup pineapple crushed
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 3 eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp banana extract

Chocolate Topping

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tbsp heavy cream

Whipped Topping

  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan and place it in the pan. Spray paper and sides with a non-stick baking spray. Combine crushed vanilla wafers, chopped nuts, and brown sugar. Add butter and mix with a fork until the consistency of wet sand.
  • Press mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pan about ¾-inch. Place crust in the freezer while preparing the filling.
  • To make the filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and sugar on medium speed until fluffy. Add cream and extract and mix until combined. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing just until combined after each addition. At low speed, mix in strawberries, bananas, pineapple, and jam. Pour filling into the prepared crust. Cover pan with foil and seal edges. Add 1½ cups of water to the bottom of your Instant Pot.
  • Lower cheesecake on trivet into the bottom of the pot. Seal lid and cook at high pressure for 50 min. Allow to rest in the pot for 15 min., then release pressure and remove to a wire rack to cool. After cool, remove from pan.
  • To make the chocolate topping: Add cream to chocolate chips and heat in the microwave in 10-second increments, stirring between each until chocolate is melted. Allow to cool enough for the chocolate to be a drizzling consistency. You can now drizzle across the top of the cake with a fork or pipe with a small writing tip.
  • To make the whipped topping: Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Set aside. In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and extract until smooth. Fold in whipped cream. Add poufs of topping around edge of cheesecake using a large star tip or tip of choice. Can decorate each piece with strawberry slices, chopped nuts, and maraschino cherries if desired.
