Mix crumbs, butter and 1/4 cup of the sugar.  Press onto bottom of 13x9-in. baking pan.

Mix cream cheese, remaining 3/4 cup sugar and vanilla with electric mixer until well blended.  Add eggs; mix until blended.  Stir in mashed banana.  Pour into crust.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until center is almost set.  Cool.  Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.  Top with strawberries, sliced banana and pineapple.  Sprinkle with nuts and drizzle with melted Baker's Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, if desired.  Cut into squares.

Freezing:
For best quality, do not freeze cream cheese.  Baked cheesecakes may be frozen up to 2 months.  Thaw frozen cheesecake in refrigerator overnight.  Top before serving.
