Ingredients:
For the Pudding:
2 boxes (3.4 oz each) instant French vanilla pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 container (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
1 box (12 oz) vanilla wafers (like Nilla Wafers)
6-8 ripe bananas, sliced
Directions:
- Make the Pudding Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes. Set aside.
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:
In another large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk, mixing until well combined and creamy.
- Combine the Mixtures:
Gently fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated. Then, fold in the prepared pudding mixture until everything is evenly combined.
- Assemble the Pudding:
- First Layer:
Line the bottom of a 9ร13-inch baking dish with a layer of vanilla wafers.
- Second Layer:
Arrange a layer of sliced bananas over the vanilla wafers.
- Third Layer:
Spread half of the pudding mixture evenly over the bananas.
- Repeat:
Add another layer of vanilla wafers and sliced bananas, then top with the remaining pudding mixture.
- Top Layer:
Arrange a final layer of vanilla wafers on top for a decorative finish.
- Chill:
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to set.
- Serve:
Slice and serve the banana pudding chilled. For added presentation, you can garnish with extra whipped topping or banana slices.
