Nutrition & ingredients
Ingredients
serves 8- 1/2 cup Crisco Baking Sticks All-Vegetable Shortening
- 4 ounces 1/2 cup brick-style cream cheese, softened (do not use lite or fat free)
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- one 5.1-ounce box instant vanilla pudding mix (not cook-and-serve, not sugar-free or lite, not the 3-ounce size)
- 1 1/2 cups cold milk (I used fat-free skim; I recommend cow’s milk and not soy, almond, etc. because filling may not set up properly)
- one 8-ounce tub Cool Whip or similar whipped topping
- 2 medium/large bananas (sliced into thin rounds (should be ripe but not overly ripe or they become mushy))
- 1 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- about 2 1/2 to 3 cups coarsely chopped Nilla Wafers (divided (most of an 11-ounce box, reduced fat okay))
- caramel or salted caramel sauce for drizzling (storebought or homemade)
