Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to form an even crust.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove and let it cool completely before proceeding.
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
In another bowl, whisk together the banana pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes, or until thickened.
Spread the banana pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer.
Arrange the sliced bananas evenly over the pudding layer.
Spread the whipped topping over the banana layer, ensuring even coverage.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the layers to set.
Slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy your Banana Pudding Squares!
