Strawberry Banana Pudding Dream – Creamy, Fruity & Impossible to Resist!
This dessert tastes like banana pudding and strawberry shortcake had the sweetest baby. Layers of silky pudding, fresh fruit, whipped cream, and soft cookies come together in one dreamy, scoopable bowl of happiness. No baking, no fuss — just pure dessert bliss!
ingredients:
• 2 cups cold milk
• 1 (5 oz) box instant vanilla pudding
• 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
• 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (or 2 cups homemade whipped cream)
• 3–4 bananas, sliced
• 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
• 1 box vanilla wafers or shortbread cookies
• Optional: extra strawberries or crushed cookies for topping
🥣 directions:
make the creamy base
In a bowl, whisk cold milk and instant pudding until thickened.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy.
Fold the pudding into the cream cheese mixture.
Fold in half the whipped topping until silky.
assemble the layers
In a trifle dish or deep bowl, start with a layer of cookies.
Top with banana slices, then strawberries, then a generous layer of creamy pudding mixture.
repeat
Keep layering cookies → fruit → cream until your dish is full.
top it off
Spread the remaining whipped topping over the top.
Add extra strawberries or crushed cookies if you want it extra cute.
chill
Refrigerate for at least 2–4 hours so the cookies soften into cake-like perfection.
serve
Scoop big, dreamy spoonfuls and watch it disappear fast.
💡 tips:
• Dip bananas lightly in lemon juice to keep them from browning
• Add strawberry jam between layers for extra flavor
• Use Chessmen cookies for a richer, buttery bite
• Best eaten within 2 days (it never lasts that long anyway!)
