How to Make Almost Fat Free Banana Pudding

  1. Line a 9x13 inch glass baking dish with Nilla wafers.
  2. Layer 3/4 of the sliced bananas (approximately 3-4 medium bananas, sliced) over the wafers.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the pudding mix (3.4 oz box), milk (2 cups), and vanilla extract (1 teaspoon) using a mixer until completely smooth and creamy. Adjust milk quantity for desired consistency.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the fat-free cream cheese (8 oz) and sugar-free sweetened condensed milk (14 oz can) until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gently fold the whipped topping (8 oz container, thawed) into the pudding mixture.
  6. Carefully fold the cream cheese mixture into the pudding mixture until just combined.
  7. If any bananas remain, gently fold them into the final mixture. Pour the pudding mixture evenly over the bananas in the prepared dish.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the pudding to set completely.
