Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Vanilla wafer cookies
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 3.4 oz Banana pudding mix
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 medium Bananas
- 1 cup Whipped topping
- 6 pieces Additional vanilla wafer cookies
Instructions
Prepare the crust by combining the crushed vanilla wafers and melted butter in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, making sure it’s evenly distributed. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the banana pudding mix and cold milk until thickened, about 2 minutes.
Gently fold the prepared pudding into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
In another bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and pudding mixture to create a light and fluffy filling.
Remove the crust from the refrigerator. Arrange an even layer of sliced bananas on top of the crust.
Pour and spread the cheesecake filling over the bananas, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to set.
Before serving, garnish with additional whipped topping, crushed vanilla wafer cookies, or banana slices, if desired.
Slice, serve, and enjoy the creamy goodness of this easy banana pudding cheesecake!
