- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and crush the vanilla wafers into fine crumbs.

- Bake the crusts for 8-10 minutes until golden, then cool.
- Mix softened cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Mash overripe bananas and fold into the cream cheese mixture, adding eggs one by one.
- Spoon the filling over the cooled crusts, filling about 3/4 full and bake for 20-25 minutes.

- Garnish with banana slices and crushed wafers just before serving.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for a smooth filling. Use overripe bananas for the best flavor. Let cheesecakes chill completely before serving.
