Instructions

For the Blondie Crust:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a 8x8 baking pan with non-stick method of your choice.

  • Add blondie batter to pan and bake for 15-20 minutes until just set.
  • Cool to room temperature and prepare topping.

For the Cheesecake Topping:

  • Using your hand mixer, whip heavy cream in a medium sized bowl until stiff peaks develop then refrigerate and clean beaters.
  • In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until nice and fluffy with hand mixer.
  • Slowly add in the sugar, banana pudding powder, milk, and vanilla extract. Beat until well incorporated.
  • Carefully fold pre-made whipped cream into the cream cheese batter.
  • Taste and add a little powdered sugar if you prefer it a little sweeter.
  • Pour and evenly spread cheesecake topping over blondie crust and freeze for at least 6 hours (overnight is best) or until completely firm.
  • Garnish with nilla wafers and serve.
