Spread pudding mixture over the crust and banana slices.
Smooth and chill for at least 2.5 hours.
When chilled, remove from pan gently making sure to pull bars out with the edges of the parchment paper. If needed run a warm knife around the edges of the bar to resmooth after removal from pan.
Cut into slices and top with fresh banana slices, whipped cream and vanilla wafer cookies. Enjoy!

Can sub out pudding mix with vanilla pudding mix for a mild flavor to suit picky eaters.
The longer the chill time the firmer the bars will be.
Do not recommend freezing.
