Amazing Banana Pudding

Ingredients:
2 bags Pepperidge Farm Chessmen cookies
4 to 6 bananas, sliced
1 (5-ounce) box instant French vanilla pudding
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
16 oz whipping cream with ¼ cup sugar OR 1 (12-ounce) container frozen whipped
topping thawed

Directions:
With an electric mixer, beat the whipping cream until stiff. Place in large mixing bowl.

Into the original mixing bowl, combine the milk and pudding mix and blend well using an electric
mixer. Place the mixture into the large bowl with the whipped cream.

Into the mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and condensed milk using an electric mixer,
blend until smooth. Place the mixture into the large mixing bowl with the cream and pudding
mixtures.

Fold the whipped cream, pudding mixture, and cream cheese mixture together.

If you are making a traditional banana pudding, pour ½ of the mixture into a 13 x 9 x 2 inch
baking dish lined with 1 bag of cookies. Add all the banana slices and cover with the remaining
pudding. Cover with the remaining cookies. (You may use a round bowl – individual dishes – or a
trifle bowl.)

Refrigerate until ready to serve.
