Steps:

• Chocolate-Cookie Crumble:
• Pulse cookies in a food processor until coarsely ground. Transfer to a large bowl and add coconut oil and salt. Mix with your hands until crumbs are coated in oil and mixture resembles wet sand.
• Press 2 cups cookie crumbs into the bottom of springform pan and freeze until ready to use. Spread out remaining crumbs on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet in an even layer (do not press). Freeze crumbs on baking sheet 30 minutes, then crumble into very small pieces with your hands. Freeze until ready to use.
• Caramel-Banana Jam:
• Bring sugar and 1/4 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Cook, swirling pan occasionally, until caramel is a deep amber color, 8-10 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add bananas a few pieces at a time, stirring between additions. Add cream and salt and cook, stirring often, until bananas are almost entirely broken down (only a few chunks should remain), about 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool.
• Assembly:
• Mix 2 1/2 pints ice cream in a large bowl with a wooden spoon until it resembles thick cake batter (it should be soft but not melted). Fold in 1 1/2 cups cookie crumble with a rubber spatula and scrape into pan with cookie crust; smooth top. Sprinkle 1 cup cookie crumble over ice cream, pressing lightly to adhere. Working quickly, scrape caramel-banana jam over cookie crumble and spread evenly. Top caramel with 1 cup cookie crumble. Freeze 20 minutes.
• Mix remaining 2 1/2 pints ice cream in the same bowl to cake-batter consistency. Fold in 1 3/4 cups cherries. Scrape into pan over cookie crumble and smooth top (it may come up over the edge of the pan). Top with remaining cookie crumble. Freeze cake until frozen, about 3 hours (or overnight).
• Sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Let sit 5 minutes to soften. Add sugar and bring to a bare simmer, stirring to dissolve gelatin and sugar. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a large bowl and whisk in cream. Beat to medium peaks.
• Unmold cake (run a knife around the edge to help release, if needed) and transfer to a platter. Spread threequarters of whipped cream over sides and top of cake. Use remaining whipped cream to create dramatic height, swirling decoratively. Top with nuts and cherries with stems. Freeze cake at least 2 hours before serving. Slice with a warm knife.
• Do Ahead
• Cake can be frosted 1 day ahead; freeze uncovered.

BANANA-SPLIT ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Cake: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons water. Sprinkle with gelatin; let stand 5 minutes. Combine egg yolks and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a heatproof bowl set over (but not in) a pot of simmering water. Whisk until pale and thickened, about 2 minutes. Whisk in gelatin mixture until dissolved. Transfer mixture to a cool bowl.
• Beat 2 1/2 cups cream with vanilla seeds on medium‐high speed to stiff peaks. Fold one third of whipped cream into gelatin mixture, then fold gelatin mixture into remaining cream.
• In a clean mixing bowl, beat egg whites on medium‐high speed to soft peaks. Gradually add 1/2 cup granulated sugar and beat to stiff peaks, 5 to 6 minutes. Fold into cream mixture. (You should have about 9 cups total.)
• Line a 9‐by‐13‐inch baking pan with plastic wrap, leaving a 4‐inch overhang on all sides. Arrange 18 cookies on bottom of pan, slightly overlapping. Arrange bananas over wafers in a single layer. Spread 4 cups cream mixture on top. Arrange 12 more cookies on top of cream. Fold halved cherries into remaining cream, then spread over cookies. Arrange remaining 12 cookies on top. Wrap in plastic and freeze at least 4 hours and up to 3 days.
• Caramel: In a small saucepan, stir together remaining 1 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, and salt. Heat over medium, gently stirring occasionally, until sugar has dissolved and syrup is clear. Cook, without stirring, washing down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush a few times to prevent crystals from forming, until syrup comes to a boil. Continue to cook, gently swirling pan occasionally, until syrup is dark amber, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove caramel from heat; carefully pour in 1/2 cup cream (it will bubble). Stir in remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla until smooth. Let cool completely. Sauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 weeks; reheat in microwave or a small pot before serving.
• Assembly: Remove cake from freezer; invert onto a platter, using plastic to pull out (if it's sticking, rub sides and bottom of pan with a warm, moist kitchen towel to loosen). Remove plastic; if desired, trim cake edges. Drizzle with 1/2 cup caramel. Beat remaining 1 cup heavy cream with confectioners' sugar on medium‐high speed to stiff peaks; dollop over cake. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts and whole cherries; serve immediately with remaining caramel on the side.
