1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter.
In a 9-inch tart pan, press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides.
Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and set aside to cool.
Combine the mashed bananas, granulated sugar, softened butter, and cream cheese in a separate bowl.
Blend until smooth.
Whip the heavy cream in a separate bowl until soft peaks form.
Continue to whip until stiff peaks form after adding the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
Fold in the whipped cream until completely combined with the banana mixture.
Spread the mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
Heat the semisweet chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Spread the chocolate evenly over the top of the banana mousse.
Allow at least 2 hours before serving to chill.
