I've been making so many holiday treats lately that I was running low on some of my favorite #KraftEssentials so I needed to restock. On a recent shopping trip to Walmart I replenished my supplies and decided to try out an easy dessert recipe using some of my favorite Kraft products like Jell-O Pudding, Cool Whip, Baker's Chocolate, Bakers Sweetened Coconut and Jet Puffed Mini Marshmallows.
Shopping for #KraftEssentials at Walmart
To make this recipe you will need a large box of Jell-O Instant Vanilla pudding, cold milk, a container of Cool Whip, a graham cracker crust, a couple of banana's, some maraschino cherries, Bakers Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate Bar, Jet Puffed mini Marshmallows, some chopped walnuts, Baker's Sweetened Coconut flakes and a little bit of lemon juice.
Banana Split Pudding Pie ingredients
Prepare the vanilla pudding by whisking it with the milk for about 3 minutes until it thickens. Spoon the pudding into the graham cracker crust and smooth the top with the back of a spoon.
Slice 1 banana into a bowl and cover with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Gently stir the banana slices to cover them with the lemon juice. This prevents the banana slices from browning. Arrange the banana slices over the top of the pudding. Cover with the plastic cover that came with the graham cracker crust. Refrigerate for about an 1 hour or until the pudding is set.
The best part of the No Bake Banana Split Pudding Pie is the Cool Whip and toppings.
Spread the Cool Whip over the top of the pie. Mounding it a bit in the center. Slice the second banana and cover it with the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice, coating both sides of the banana slices.
Arrange the banana slices in a pretty pattern on top of the Cool Whip. Then arrange the maraschino cherries tucked in between the banana slices.
Use the mini marshmallows to fill in the spaces between the banana slices and cherries. I sunk them half way into the Cool Whip but you could just scatter them randomly over the top of the pie.
Sprinkle the top of the pie with the chopped walnuts. You could also use peanuts instead.
Melt 2 squares of the Baker's Semi Sweet Chocolate bar in the microwave by heating it first for 20 seconds then stirring. Continue heating in 10 second intervals until melted and smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the pie.
Chill the pie for about 3 hours or overnight before serving. You could even freeze it overnight to give it a real ice cream texture.
I love the way this pudding pie turned out. It looks just like a Banana Split! and tastes so good.
