Excellent. Used 2 cups of milk for the pudding, and 1 cup of the whipped topping. Found it to be creamier,less concentrated.

I took a chance and made this for our granddaughters, one of which always declared that she didn't like pudding. I knew she liked fruit, however so decorated the top with assorted berries. They both absolutely loved it.

I used banana pudding and light whipped cream. I can't believe my child actually ate the banana slices! It's a miracle!!

I already make this dessert in a 9x13 pan, but I add crushed pineapple with the layer of banana and sometimes add coconut to the whipped cream. I use cooked vanilla pudding instead of instant.. (works better with the pineapple) My co-workers love it
