Experience pure indulgence with the Best Banana Pudding Ever! This classic dessert layers vanilla wafers, fresh bananas, and a creamy blend of pudding and cream cheese. Topped with crunchy wafers, it’s chilled to perfection for a delectable, refreshing treat. Perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients:
2 boxes Vanilla Wafers
6 to 8 bananas, sliced
2 cups milk
1 (5 oz.) box French Vanilla pudding mix
1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 oz.) container frozen whipped topping, thawed, or an equal amount of sweetened whipped cream
Directions:
Prepare the Base: Line the bottom of a 13×9 inch dish with one bag of vanilla wafers. Slice the bananas and layer them on top of the cookies.
Make the Pudding: In a bowl, combine the milk and French vanilla pudding mix. Blend well using a handheld electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and thick.
Create the Cream Cheese Mixture: In another bowl, combine the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk. Mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture gently to maintain its light and airy texture.
Combine and Layer: Add the cream cheese mixture to the prepared pudding mixture and stir until well blended. Pour this mixture over the layer of cookies and bananas in the dish. Spread it evenly to cover all the bananas and cookies.
Final Touches: Cover the top of the pudding with the remaining bag of vanilla wafers. This adds a delightful crunch to each bite.
Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the banana pudding until it’s ready to serve. Chilling it allows the flavors to meld together beautifully, making it even more delicious.
