EASY BANANA PUDDING CHEESECAKE
Ingredients
- 1 premade large graham cracker crust (2 extra servings size)
- 2 (8 oz) blocks cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 (3.4 oz) box banana cream instant pudding
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup sugar
- 15 vanilla wafers, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300F degrees.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer (or using a handheld electric mixer), combine cream cheese and sugar until smooth (about 2 minutes on medium speed).
- Add in eggs and mix until combined.
- Add the powdered instant banana pudding to the cream cheese mixture.
- If you are using a stand mixer, it's really important that you scrape down the sides of your mixing bowl often.
- Mix until combined.
- Batter will be thick.
- Put vanilla wafers into ziploc bag, and crush using your hands or a rolling pin.
- You want to leave some of them chunky so that you'll see bits of wafer in the cheesecake when you cut into it.
- Gently fold the wafers into the cheesecake batter.
- Spread batter into graham cracker crust.
- Bake in the oven for about 55-60 minutes.
- It'll be a bit puffy when you first take it out of the oven but will settle down as it cools.
- Allow cheesecake to cool for several hours in the fridge before serving.

Oh my goodness! Yummmmm! I have two ripe banana's here I was trying to figure out what to make now I Know.Warm Blessings!~Amy
yumm! your cheesecake looks so good!!!
My Daddy would love this, maybe I will make it for Father's Day
This looks wonderful! I wish I had a piece right now!
Hello do you have to put banana pudding cheesecake in the oven
Hi Ameisha - yes you do. It's in the directions 🙂
Lol. I kept scrolling and I found out where I asked the same thing last time. Forgive me, I am forgetful. However I did not forget how great this cheesecake is so I'm making it again!
Looks delicious! My family would love this too.
Hmm, I JUST bought Vanilla Wafers on a whim at the store Monday. Coincidence?! I THINK NOT!
Can I use this same recipe to make cupcakes instead of a whole cheesecake?
Hey Wanda, that's a good question. I haven't actually tested it out. I suppose you certainly could. Or maybe even use those little mini graham cracker crusts??
Perfect way to combine to incredible desserts!
Great combination of 2 yummy desserts. This is a keeper.
What about the eggs? They are not cooked and could be a problem for some people.
They are cooked when pie is baked. I don't suggest eating it before being baked. Never eat anything that have eggs in it unless it is going to be cooked.
Anonymous - this is a baked pie so the eggs are cooked.
Mouth-watering Goodness!
Oh, my! You may have just come up with my all time favorite comfort dessert!
How am I ever going to lose weight if you keep posting these amazing recipes? I love you, Brandie. Pinning... of course!
Call this lazy baking? HA!Congratulations on making the foodbuzz Top 9!
Oh my goodness! This sounds like one heck of a cheesecake =) Congrats on the Top 9!
Just made this recipe and put it in the oven. Hope it turns out as great as yours looks 🙂
Just pulled it out of the oven! Can't wait for my husband to try it! Looks so good!
Made this for my husband for Father's Day. He loves banana pudding so I knew he would love this. I don't even like banana pudding and I liked this. Thank you for the recipe.
Dog gone it...out of all those things I have available only eggs, banana's and cream cheese...That is so cool that you made a long involved recipe into almost instant! BRAVO!
Just put it in the oven and would like to know if I should immediately put in the refrigerator when it comes out the oven
I just made this last night for my husband. I used Splenda instead of regular sugar and omitted the bananas. Hubby says it delicious! I'm allergic to all things banana, so I can't taste it for myself. Thank you so much for these awesome recipes. 🙂
I really love your recipes and have been subscribed for just a few months but I spend hours looking and reading and drooling. Thanks so much. I laugh out loud almost every day when I read your blog. Is there a reason the zip list save recipe function is no longer available?
Thank you so much! That really means so much to me? Glad I could put a little giggle in your day! I'm working with Ziplist on the saving issues. I'm hoping we'll have it fixed really soon! Thanks for bearing with us while we sort it out!
Made this last night, and its AMAZING! Thank you! LOVE your recipes 🙂
Made it. Gonna eat it.
