Ingredients
- Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix: 2 (3.4 oz) packages
- Milk: 2 cups
- Cool Whip: 1 cup (8 oz)
- Pre-Packaged Graham Cracker Pie Crust: 1
- Bananas, sliced: 2-3
Instructions
- Prepare the pudding mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the instant vanilla pudding mix and 2 cups of cold milk. Whisk vigorously for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency.
- Incorporate the Cool Whip: Gently fold in the Cool Whip until blended well and creamy.
- Layer the pie: Start by placing a layer of the pudding mixture at the bottom of the graham cracker pie crust. Add a layer of sliced bananas over the pudding. Repeat the process until you fill the crust.
- Chill: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 180 minutes, or overnight for the best results.
- Serve and garnish: Slice the pie into generous portions. Garnish with more Cool Whip and banana slices if desired.
Notes
For a lighter version, substitute Cool Whip with stabilized homemade whipped cream. Customize with chocolate pudding for a chocolate twist, or add nuts for extra texture.
