Dessert: Banana Pudding Bars

Recipe by Candace Braun Davison It's a whole new way to enjoy the Southern staple.

Ingredients

2 c. Nilla wafers
1/2 c. butter, melted

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 °F, and grease the bottom and sides of a 9"x13" pan with butter.
Place the Nilla wafers in a resealable plastic bag. Use a rolling pin to crush the cookies into a fine crumble. Pour in the melted butter and toss to combine. Press the crumble into the bottom of the baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for 7-8 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
Grab a larger mixing bowl and beat the sugars and butter together until light and fluffy. Beat in the pudding mix, eggs and vanilla extract, then reduce the mixer's speed to low and gradually add in the flour mixture, stirring only until it's just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips.
Pour the cookie dough over the Nilla wafer crust and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bars comes out with just a few crumbs (no goo). Serve warm or at room temperature.
