Make the base of the pie.Crush cookies using a food processor. Melt the butter. Mix butter and cookies together and then press into the tin to make a crust (bottom and sides). You will have enough mixture to make a thick base on the bottom and the sides. Put in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or overnight

Whip cream together with the sugar, set aside in the refrigerator until using

Warm arequipe in a pot only for a couple of seconds until the arequipe is easier to spread, add 1 tablespoon of water if necessary.When using homemade arequipe, warming and adding water will most likely not be necessary as it is more liquid

Spread arequipe on the pie base. Add sliced bananas. Place whipped cream on top. Sprinkle with chocolate chips or other topping of choice. Serve right away or keep in the refrigerator until ready to eat
