This is amazingly good!!! My family doesn't care for whipped topping so I leave it off. If I'm serving this to company, I put the whipped topping in a bowl and let people add it to their piece if they want.
I purposely made adjustments to this recipe: instead of the no-bake cheesecake mix, I used:one package (8-oz.) cream cheese, 1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup butter, melted and 1/4 cup cinnamon-sugar. I used one package (3.4-oz.) FRENCH VANILLA instant pudding mix with 1/2 tsp. banana extract and 1-1/2 cups cold 2% milk, 1-1/2 to 2 cups whipped topping and omitted the pecans. Not everyone is a fan of nuts! I mixed together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and cinnamon-sugar which I pressed into the bottom and up the sides of a deep-dish 9" pie plate and sat it on baking sheet in 400o F. oven, TURNED OFF for 15 minutes. I combined the cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp. vanilla extract for the cheese mixture and beat at least 5 minutes until blended well on medium speed. I then cut the bananas into slices which I arranged over the cheese filling.I beat the vanilla pudding mix, banana extract and milk, using my KA wire whisk attachment and spread pudding mixture over banana slices, then I added 1-1/2 to 2 cups whipped topping to at least cover the pudding. Because the cream cheese mixture I'd used was quite thick, I didn't need to chill it! I chilled this pie after I finished assembling it! I needed a recipe for the challenge this week on Cook's Corner, featuring bananas, so I chose to use this recipe!I plan to share it at the local hospital where I do volunteer work! I test my TOH recipe results out on the depts./chapel, etc.!Thank you, Kelly Haberny, for sharing your recipe! I'm sure that it will be a recipe keeper for me! delowenstein
Yuck! There's a better recipe from taste of home called banana cheesecake with a graham cracker crust that's actually worth making! It also is fast and easy to make and the end results are way worth the little bit of extra effort!

This is banana pudding and cheesecake all wrapped up in one. Very delecious!
Easy and very good!!My 3 year old said"Mom this is a keeper!"
This first was published in Taste of Home years ago. It has become one of our all time family favorites. Always turns out nice and never any leftovers. For those with nut allergies, omit the pecans. Equally delish.
I made this for Easter and the whole family loved it. It was so good and so easy! I used my Ninja to cut the butter into the crust crumbs and it worked like a charm.
