Ingredients

12 oz container cool whip thawed
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
8 oz package cream cheese softened
2 cups milk
5 oz box instant french vanilla pudding mix
6 to 8 bananas sliced
2 bags chessmen cookies

Instructions

Cover the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan with 1 bag of chessman cookies.
Layer sliced bananas over the cookies, this will be about 6-8 bananas depending on their size.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk, beating with an electric mixer until smooth. Add in the pudding mix and milk, beat until combined. Allow the pudding to rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
Fold in the cool whip. It’s difficult to find 12 oz containers of cool whip, so I used 1 & 1/2, 8 oz containers. Mix until fully combined. Spread this mixture over the banana layer.
Top with the remaining bag of cookies. Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 4 hours, or up to 12 hours.

Notes

Store for up to 2 days in the refrigerator. Beyond 2 days, the cookies become too soft and mushy.
Be sure to use softened cream cheese, otherwise the cream cheese can be lumpy.
