Instructions

Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Place cookies in a food processor and blend until they are fine crumbles. Pour into a medium bowl.

  3. Bake in oven for 10 minutes. Allow to cool in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Filling

  2. Place half of the pudding mixture in the cooled crust. Spread out evenly. Place the sliced bananas in a single layer over the mixture. Try to get them as close as possible. Spread the rest of the pudding mixture over the bananas.

Whipped Cream Topping

  1. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix until stiff. Spread over the pudding mixture. Serve immediately or place in refrigerator until ready to serve.
