No Ice Cream Banana Split

This is the most awesome dessert. It has it all. The sweet, the goo, the flavors and the great thing..you don't need a freezer. This is great for a picnic or pot luck. You chill it before you go and it s all ready for the table. As most of my receipes...you can alter to suit your tastes.. NEED: 9 x 13 baking dish graham cracker crumbs ( enough to cover the bottom of the pan) 2 large boxes of instant pudding..Choc / Van. or any you choose Salted peanuts 1 large tub of Cool Whip or like topping Chocolate syrup Strawberry Sundae Topping Carmel Sundae Topping 3 to 4 nice size bananas As you can see my the list of ingredients, this is a banana split where pudding takes the place of ice cream. Follow package instructions and make a crust from the graham cracker crumbs. Just cover the bottom of the pan. Place in the over at 350 degrees for 7 minutes...remove and set a side to cool. Prepare puddings as directed. Prepare in seperate bowls. Using large spoon randomly drop spoonfuls on the crust. Alternate flavors. Top pudding with sliced bananas Evenly coat with a layer of Strawberry topping Drizzle Choc Syrup and Carmel topping over the the Strawberry topping. Apply a nice thick layer of Cool Whip Chill in the fridge for at least an hour. Cover loosely with plastic wrap Remove Sprinkle with peanuts and drizzle with thin lines of Choc. syrup and Carmel topping. Add cherries if you like. Serve. I made this for a potluck for a friends birthday. She is allergic to banana's so I substitued cut up canned peaches. It was great. Allergic to peanuts? Leave them out..or offer them on the side for those who want them. Get creative. There are a lot of pudding flavors available and the sky is the limit on toppings. I have heated peanut butter and drizzled that on. You can also use all sugar free toppings and low fat milk. Make a great treat and cut the calories! Enjoy!
