Banana Pudding

1 Container light sour cream (8-ounce size)
1 Container light frozen whipped cream topping, thawed (8-ounce size)
1 Package instant vanilla pudding mix (5-ounce size)
2 Cups reduced fat (2%) milk
4-5 bananas, peeled and sliced
1 Box of vanilla wafers (11-ounce size)

In a medium or large size bowl combine sour cream, whipped topping, pudding mix and milk.

Stir well to remove any clumps and combine ingredients well.

In a casserole dish or trifle bowl, layer cookies, pudding and bananas. Repeat – cookies, pudding and bananas. Top with pudding.

Refrigerate until serving. It’s better to refrigerate at least 2-3 hours.

Prior to serving, top with crushed cookies (I put approximately 10 cookies in a freezer zipper bag and crushed with a spoon).
