Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 package (3.4 ounces) Instant banana cream pudding mix
  • 1 cup Cold milk
  • 1 package (8 ounces) Cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 to 1 cup Powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 container (8 ounces) Frozen whipped topping, thawed
Optional Add-Ins and Serving
  • 1-2 bananas Ripe bananas, sliced or diced
  • As needed Vanilla wafers, shortbread cookies, graham crackers, or apple slices

Method
 

Step-by-Step
  1. Beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the instant banana cream pudding mix with the cold milk for 1 to 2 minutes, until thickened.
  3. Beat or fold the thickened pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined.
  4. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping, taking care not to flatten the fluffy texture.
  5. Fold in diced banana if serving immediately, or reserve banana slices for the topping.
  6. Spoon the dip into a serving bowl and chill for 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving. Serve with vanilla wafers or other dippers.

Notes

Use instant banana cream pudding mix, not cook-and-serve pudding. Fully softened cream cheese creates the smoothest dip, and the whipped topping should be added last. Add fresh banana shortly before serving because it can brown and release moisture during refrigeration. A light brush of lemon juice can help banana garnish resist browning.
