CREAMY BANANA PUDDING

1 (14 oz) can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
11/2 cups cold water
1 6-serving size package instant vanilla pudding
1 pint whipping cream, whipped
36 vanilla wafers
3 medium bananas (I only use two)sliced and dipped in RealLemon Lemon Juice

In large bowl of electric mixer, combine condensed milk and water. Add pudding mix; mix well. Chill in fridge, 5-10 minutes.

Meanwhile, whip whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipping cream into the chilled pudding mix.

Spoon 1 cup pudding mix into glass bowl. (I always use a trifle bowl as this makes a pretty presentation.) Top with 1/3 each of the wafers, bananas, and pudding. Repeat layering twice, ending with pudding. I usually garnish with ground up vanilla wafer crumbs (about 5 wafers)

Cover; chill for 2-3 hours before serving.
