Place the Nilla wafers in a food processor and finely crush. If you do not have a food processor, you can place them in a Ziploc bag and crush with a rolling pin. Set aside.
Heat a skillet or frying pan on medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
Place the chopped walnuts in the pan and "toast" for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Set aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, mash both bananas with 2 forks.
Add the crushed wafers, both sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and toasted walnuts. Stir to combine.
Add the softened cream cheese and mix well to evenly incorporate all of the ingredients.
Cover the bowl and chill for 30 minutes for easier handling.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Roll the chilled truffle dough into 1 inch balls and place on the lined cookie sheet.
Chill for 15 minutes.
Place the white candy melts in a double boiler or Wilton candy melting pot.
Heat until the candy is completely melted and smooth.
Dip each chilled banana truffle into the melted chocolate and place back on the lined cookie sheet. The chocolate will harden very quickly because the dough was chilled ahead of time.
In a microwave safe bowl, microwave the yellow candy melts in 20 second increments until completely melted and smooth.
Drizzle the melted yellow chocolate on top of each truffle and immediately place a walnut half on top before the yellow chocolate hardens.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to seven days or freeze for up to 30 days.
