Ingredient list

20 OREO Cookies, finely crushed (about 1-3/4 cups)
¼ cup butter, melted
3 cups half-and-half
2 egg yolks
½ cup sugar
⅓ cup cornstarch
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbsp. butter, cut into small pieces
3 ripe, but firm bananas, sliced
1 cup thawed frozen whipped topping
Additional OREO Cookies, for garnish

Directions

Combine crushed cookies and butter in bowl. Press crumb mixture onto bottom and up side of a 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate.

Add half-and-half, egg yolks, sugar and cornstarch to 2-qt. saucepan and whisk until the mixture is smooth and cornstarch is dissolved. Place on medium heat and bring to a simmer, whisking constantly; cook until thickened, about 15 min. Once thick, like pudding, remove from heat and stir in vanilla and 2 Tbsp. butter.

Place half of the sliced bananas in the bottom of prepared crust. Top with half of the pudding; repeat layers.

Refrigerate 4 hours or until set. Top with whipped topping just before serving. Garnish with OREO Cookies.
