Description
This creamy and delicious banana pudding trifle is a delightful dessert perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 5 ounces INSTANT vanilla pudding mix (larger box)
- 3 cups milk (2% or higher)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 8 ounces whipped topping (COOL WHIP), thawed (divided use)
- 11 ounces Nilla wafers (divided use)
- 5–7 bananas, peeled and sliced (divided use)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy.
- Add in the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla pudding mix, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined well (this can take a few minutes so be patient for it all to come together).
- Finally, stir in half of the whipped topping.
- To layer: place one-third of the Nilla wafers in a layer on the bottom of a trifle dish, large bowl, or a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Add a single layer of sliced bananas.
- Then pour one-third of the pudding mixture on top (enough to cover all the bananas).
- Continue with two more layers.
- Top with the remaining whipped topping.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one to two hours before serving so it can thicken up and the wafers can soften.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened for the best texture.
- This dessert can be made a day in advance for convenience.
