Ingredients

Servings
  • 40 chessman cookies about 2 packages
  • 5 ounce instant vanilla pudding (5 oz box)
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 8 ounce cream cheese softened (1 package)
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk (1 can)
  • 2 cups Cool Whip or whipped cream
  • 4 medium bananas sliced

Instructions

  1. Prep: Line the bottom of a 8x8x2-inch baking dish with lady chessmen cookies. You should be able to get 5 across by 4 down, so 20 cookies per layer.
  2. Make Pudding: In a bowl, combine the milk, pudding mix and blend using a handheld electric mixer until smooth. Set aside and let it set.
  3. Mix & Combine: Using another bowl, combine the cream cheese and condensed milk together and mix until smooth. Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture. Add the cream cheese mixture to the pudding mixture and stir until well blended.
  4. Assemble: Pour half the mixture over the first layer of the cookies then top with the sliced bananas. Top with remaining cream cheese mixture and spread evenly over the bananas. Finally top with another layer of chessman cookies.
  5. Chill & Serve: Refrigerate for at least a couple hours before serving.

Notes

  • In the original recipe, the banana is layered over the first layer of cookies, however, I prefer my bananas in between layers of pudding. Totally up to you how you decide to layer your pudding.
  • If you can't find the Pepperidge Farm Chessmen cookies, vanilla wafers will work as well!
  • The hardest part about this recipe is waiting for it to set! Make sure you let this chill for AT LEAST 2 hours so that everything has a chance to firm up and won't be one big gloopy mess. Overnight would be even better!
  • Feel free to mix up the layers in this and use your favorite types of pudding! You can use different combinations like butterscotch, chocolate, caramel etc.
  • Store leftover banana pudding sealed tightly in an airtight container or covered in aluminum foil, or plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • To keep your banana pudding for longer, wrap the pan tightly in a layer of plastic wrap AND aluminum foil, or transfer to an airtight container and store in the freezer for 3 months. To thaw, store in the fridge overnight until ready to serve.
