Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).
In a food processor, blend the chocolate chip cookies into fine crumbs.
Transfer the crumbs to a bowl and mix with melted butter until evenly combined.
Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 23 cm (9-inch) pie dish to form the crust.
Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely on a wire rack.
Mash two bananas in a medium saucepan. Add granulated sugar, cornstarch, milk, and egg yolks and whisk until smooth.
Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble.
Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla extract. Let the banana custard cool slightly, then pour it into the cooled cookie crust.
Sprinkle the dark chocolate chips over the warm custard and gently swirl them in with a knife to create a marbled effect.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form.
Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the set custard layer.
Garnish with banana slices and chocolate shavings.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
