Easy no bake Banana Layered Pudding Dessert is the ultimate dessert when you want a delicious twist on homemade classic banana pudding with nilla wafers with only 6 ingredients!
In a large mixing bowl, mix the vanilla instant pudding and cold milk together in a large mixing bowl until smooth for 2 minutes.
Whisk in sweetened condensed milk and set aside.
If making whipped cream, add heavy cream to stand mixer and whip to stiff peaks, about 3-4 minutes, otherwise use cool whip and stir half of the whipped topping into the vanilla pudding mixture.
Place a layer of wafer cookies on the bottom of a 9x9 baking dish.
Place a layer of sliced bananas over the wafer cookies.
Spoon the pudding mixture over the banana slices and spread evenly.
Spread the remaining whipped cream/Cool Whip over the pudding layer and place more cookies on top. Place in refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight.
Can also garnish with fresh banana slices and crushed cookies, if desired before serving.
