Banana Cream Pudding

Banana Cream Pudding is not something I would typically make, however, a coworker of mine sent me this recipe and told me I had to try it. I adapted the original recipe to be fat free and I couldn't tell the difference.

Banana Cream Pudding

Ingredients:

1 can condensed fat free milk

8 oz. package of fat free cream cheese

1 large box instant vanilla pudding

2 cups nonfat milk

12 oz. fat free cool whip

1 box nilla wafers (reduced fat)

6-8 bananas

Combine cream cheese and condensed milk until smooth and thoroughly incorporated, then set aside.

Mix vanilla pudding with 2 cups nonfat milk (instead of 3 cups called for in packet). Fold half of the cool whip into the pudding.

Transfer the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture. Incorporate the balance of the cool whip and fold until light and fluffy.

Arrange 1 layer of nilla wafers followed by 1 layer of cut banana followed by 1 layer of pudding mixture, repeat until you have filled your dish and used all pudding. Refrigerate for a few hours to help stiffen the dessert. Top with whip cream or banana for presentation.
