Banana Pudding

I needed to make dessert two weeks ago for Friday lunch and decided to make banana pudding, which I had actually never made before.  So I went to allrecipes.com and chose the first banana pudding recipe that came up, because it had 5 out of 5 stars.  Other than licking the beaters, I didn't even taste it, because when I went back to get dessert it was all gone!  I hate that I can't tell you exactly what it tasted like, but I'll let the dish that was scraped clean speak for itself!

Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
• 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 (5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
• 3 cups cold milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
• 4 bananas, sliced
• 1/2 (12 ounce) package vanilla wafers

This looks like an ad for Kroger!

 

Directions

1. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Beat in condensed milk, pudding mix, cold milk and vanilla until smooth. Fold in 1/2 of the whipped topping.
2. Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish with vanilla wafers. Arrange sliced bananas evenly over wafers. Spread with pudding mixture. Top with remaining whipped topping. Chill.  

I would have liked to have had more whipped topping on top, so in the future I'll get a 16 oz. container.  I also put some vanilla wafers on top, before the final layer of whipped topping.

Nanners!
