A no-bake Banana Pudding Lasagna layered with a buttery vanilla wafer crust, creamy cheesecake-banana filling, fresh bananas, and crunchy cookie topping for an easy crowd-pleasing dessert.

Ingredients

Crust:

2 (11 oz) packages vanilla wafers

6 tablespoons butter, melted

Cheesecake Layer:

2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened (16 oz total)

¾ cup granulated sugar

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 (3.4 oz) box instant banana pudding mix

1 ¾ cups milk

5 large bananas, sliced

Instructions

  1. Place one package of vanilla wafers in a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Mix crumbs with melted butter until fully combined.
  2. Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch casserole dish to form the crust. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract. Beat until stiff peaks form.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together banana pudding mix and milk until thickened.
  6. Fold the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fully combined.
  7. Spread half of the cheesecake mixture over the prepared crust.
  8. Layer sliced bananas evenly over the filling, then add a layer of whole vanilla wafers.
  9. Spread the remaining cheesecake mixture evenly over the wafer layer.
  10. Add another layer of sliced bananas on top.
  11. Crush the remaining vanilla wafers and sprinkle over the top.
  12. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results. Let sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Chill overnight for the best texture and flavor.

Use ripe but firm bananas to prevent browning.

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Not recommended for freezing due to banana texture changes.

For clean slices, wipe the knife between cuts.

Graham crackers or shortbread cookies can be substituted for vanilla wafers.
