Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cookie Crust: Combine the cookie mix, melted butter, and egg in a mixing bowl until blended. Press the mixture into a 9x13-inch dish.
  2. Bake the Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake crust for 10–12 minutes until golden. Cool completely.
  3. Make the Cream Cheese Filling: Beat together softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in Cool Whip.
  4. Layer Bananas and Cream Cheese Mixture: Once the crust is cool, layer half the sliced bananas and half the cream cheese mixture over the crust.
  5. Prepare the Banana Pudding: Whisk pudding mix with cold milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Spread over the cream cheese layer.
  6. Repeat the Layering Process: Layer remaining bananas, cream cheese filling, and final layer of banana pudding.
  7. Chill to Set: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Slice the extra banana for garnish and serve chilled.
