Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 8 oz of softened cream cheese with a 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk. Whisk together on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.

  3. Spread a layer of vanilla wafers across the bottom of a rectangular serving dish.
  4. Slice 6-8 ripe bananas and layer them over the vanilla wafers, followed by a layer of fresh strawberries.
  5. Pour half of the creamy pudding mixture over the fruits and wafers, spreading it evenly.
  6. Add another layer of vanilla wafers on top, followed by the remaining banana and strawberry slices.
  7. Pour the rest of the creamy pudding mixture over the second layer of fruit, spreading it smoothly.
  8. Spread 12 oz of whipped topping over the final layer of pudding, smooth it out, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
