How to make No-Bake Banana Pudding Lasagna

No-Bake Banana Pudding Lasagna is much easier than I expected. It’s more of an assembly job than actual dessert making, so perfect for all skill levels, but plan ahead because it will need to refrigerate for at least an hour before serving!

CRUST. Begin by crushing your Nilla wafers. For a very fine mixture, place wafers in your food processor. In a small bowl mix crumbs with melted butter and sugar. Press Nilla crumbs/butter mixture into the bottom of 9X13 pan to form a crust.

CHEESECAKE PUDDING CREAMY LAYER. Whip the cold heavy cream into stiff peaks. Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the whipped cream, vanilla, and sugar. Make the pudding, then add it to the cream cheese mixture.

ASSEMBLY LASAGNA Layer pudding, bananas, and vanilla wafers to create a “lasagna”.
Repeat the layers one more time and refrigerate!

WHIPPED CREAM  LAYER. Top off with the rest of your Whipped cream (or Cool whip if you like!). 

TOP & SERVE.  Decorate with Nilla wafers and Nilla crumbs, and banana slices before serving.

Equipment

  • 9 x 13 baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups nilla wafers crushed, divided
  • 4 tbsp butter melted

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups heavy cream cold, divided

  • 1 3/4 cup milk

  • Whip the cold heavy cream into stiff peaks on medium-high speed, about 4-5 minutes. Reserve 2 cups for topping. Set aside.
