Directions:
Crust:
Combine all ingredients. Press them in the bottom of a 9"x13" pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes in 350ºF oven. Cool completely.

Mousse:
Sprinkle gelatin over the water, let stand 1 minute. Microwave for 3 minutes on power "2" to dissolve. You may need to add a minute or two more. Set aside. Whip cream and refrigerate until needed.

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with sugar until well mixed. Add banana and cocoa, mix well. Gradually add gelatin and beat until thoroughly blended. Gently fold in whipped cream. Pour over cooled crust. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 48 hours.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
The reason it needs to be refrigerated so long is that the crust is very hard after baking and it needs to soak up moisture from the mousse.
