Preparation

Step 1

Line the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch dish with 1 bag of cookies.

In a bowl, combine the milk and pudding mix and blend well using a handheld electric mixer. Using another bowl, combine the cream cheese and condensed milk together and mix until smooth. (NOTE: Don't add all of the condensed milk at once. Taste for sweetness.) Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture. Add the cream cheese mixture to the pudding mixture and stir until well blended. Pour the mixture over the cookies. Then, layer bananas on top followed by another layer of the pudding mixture. Cover with the remaining cookies (crushed or whole). Refrigerate until ready to serve.
