Double-Banana Pudding

Serves: 6 to 8

Description
This simple, no-cooking-required recipe comes from my paternal grandmother, and is a variation on the classic banana pudding recipe that comes on the back of the vanilla wafer box.

Ingredients

 * 2 cups cold milk
 * 1 package Jell-O® Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling
 * 1 tub (8 ounces) Cool Whip Whipped Topping, thawed
 * 30 vanilla wafer cookies
 * 3 bananas, sliced

Directions
Pour milk into large bowl. Add pudding mix. Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes or until thickened. Gently stir in 1 1/2 cups of the whipped topping. Place 10 of the cookies on bottom of 2-quart serving bowl. Top with 1/3 of the bananas and 1/3 of the pudding mixture. Repeat layers ending with pudding mixture. Cover with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
