BANANA CREAM PIE BARS
Herb Toiletries Pie. It is my all-time rival pie E'er. Still though it is rattling relaxed to puddle, I unremarkably only get to revel it once a period, BUT I see myself making these bars all twelvemonth abundant.
Nilla Wafers, Cream Cheese, Bananas, Pudding, Whipped Superior and Caramel are all conglomerate into one tasteful afters. If you poorness to try something a soft contrastive this twelvemonth, try delivery these exerciser instead of pie.
INGREDIENTS
- 45 Nilla Wafers, finely crushed (around 1½ cups)
- 1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
- ¼ c. unsalted butter, melted
- 1 (8 oz.) tub frozen whipped topping, thawed
- ½ c. powdered sugar
- 3 large bananas, sliced
- 3 c. cold milk
- 2 (3.4 oz.) pkgs. vanilla instant pudding mix
- caramel ice cream topping
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine wafer crumbs and melted butter and toss until crumbs are coated in butter. Press crumbs into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Refrigerate until ready to use. Refrigerating the crust hardens it and helps it stick together.
- Beat cream cheese and sugar in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in 1½ cups of whipped topping. Spread evenly over chilled crust. Top with sliced bananas. Next, beat pudding mixes and milk for two minutes until slightly thickened. Spread over bananas. Top with remaining whipped topping and carefully spread out evenly.
- Refrigerate for 3 hours before slicing. Drizzle with caramel topping before serving. Note: For easy removal, line baking pan with parchment paper before pressing in the crust, with a slight overhang, so you can lift the bars out of the pan for cutting and serving.
