How To Make Not Yo’ Mama’s Banana Pudding

1. In a large mixing bowl, using electric hand mixer, combine milk and instant pudding mix.  Mix on low speed until combined and thickened, about two minutes.
2. In a separate large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk. Beat together on medium-high speed until no lumps remains and mixture is smooth.
3. Gently fold in the Cool Whip, using a rubber spatula, just until combined.
4. Transfer to the bowl with the pudding and stir gently until completely combined.
5. Line the bottom of a 9×13-inch casserole dish with 1 bag of the cookies.
6. Top with sliced bananas in an even layer.
7. Next, top the bananas with the whipped cream mixture and smooth out even with a rubber spatula.
8. Lastly, lay out the second bag of Chessmen cookies.
9. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours (overnight is even better!)
10. Scoop the banana pudding onto serving plates and enjoy!
