Step-by-Step Instructions
- Mix the Creamy Base: Combine 8 oz of softened cream cheese and 14 oz of sweetened condensed milk in a medium mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.
- Incorporate the Pudding Mix: Add 3.4 oz of French vanilla pudding mix and 1 cup of milk to the bowl. Mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until the pudding thickens.
- Prepare the Layers: Arrange a single layer of vanilla wafers at the bottom of a large serving dish.
- Add the Fresh Fruit: Layer sliced ripe bananas and strawberries over the vanilla wafers, covering them completely.
- Pour in the Creamy Mixture: Carefully pour half of the pudding mixture over the fruit layer. Spread it evenly.
- Repeat the Layering Process: Add more vanilla wafers and another layer of bananas and strawberries. Pour the remaining pudding mixture over this layer.
- Top it Off: Spread 8 oz of whipped topping over the last layer of pudding. Garnish with sliced strawberries if desired.
- Chill and Serve: Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
