How To Make No Bake Banana Pudding Cheesecake

Ingredients needed

  • Cream cheese
  • Banana pudding mix
  • Vanilla wafers
  • Butter
  • Milk
  • Sour cream
  • Powdered sugar

Tips, where things can go wrong…

There are ways to swap out certain ingredients like the vanilla wafers for graham crackers or sour cream for cool whip. But, there are certain things that have to be followed in order to keep the structure of the cheesecake.

  • Allow the pudding to bloom with the milk. I’ve tested not using milk and the pudding makes the texture of the cheesecake horrible without it. The banana flavor is great with one pack. If you try to add another it’ll make it worse.
  • I experimented with using mashed bananas in the cheesecake and that didn’t turn out well. The cheesecake would not set properly due to the excess moisture from the bananas. But, you can layer them on top if you’d like.
