How to Make Banana Cream Deelight
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) softened butter and 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup (60g) chopped pecans. Mix until just combined.
- Press the mixture into a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Let the crust cool completely.
- While the crust cools, beat 8 ounces (227g) cream cheese with 1/2 cup (100g) powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in 8 ounces (227g) whipped topping.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
- Slice 3-4 ripe bananas and arrange them over the cream cheese layer.
- In a separate bowl, prepare instant vanilla pudding according to package directions (usually with 2 cups of milk).
- Beat until thick and spread evenly over the bananas.
- Top with the remaining whipped topping and sprinkle with extra chopped pecans (optional).
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
