I made this recipe up, quite by accident, and it turned out amazing! I'll try it next time in a pie crust (a regular pastry crust, oreo crust or graham cracker crust--they will all work well). If you want to make a little more, use 2 boxes of chocolate instant pudding, and then add 4 cups of milk, as called for on the packages. Also, you can use real whipping cream, as opposed to cool whip.

Ingredients For cowboy-up pudding

  • 1 box
    1 large box of instant chocolate pudding
  • 3 c
    milk (called for on pudding box)
  • 1 pkg
    cool whip, thawed
  • 2
    bananas, sliced
  • chocolate ice cream topping (like hershey's syrup) for drizzling
  • carmel ice cream topping (like hershey's syrup) for drizzling

How To Make cowboy-up pudding

  • 1
    Make chocolate pudding, as directed on package, with the 3 cups of milk.
  • 2
    In a medium bowl, put 1/4 of the chocolate pudding on the bottom.
  • 3
    Place 1/2 of a banana, sliced, on top of the pudding, spreading them evenly.
  • 4
    Drizzle Carmel Syrup/Ice Cream Topping over the bananas. Add enough to your liking, I use 1-2 TBLS, on the first layer.
  • 5
    Add 1/4 of the Cool Whip, spread in a layer, over the Banana and Carmel layer.
  • 6
    Drizzle with Chocolate Syrup/Ice Cream Topping, about 2 TBLS over the Cool Whip Layer.
  • 7
    Repeat layers, 2 more times. As the layers rise in the bowl, it will widen. Use a little more pudding, a few more banana slices, a little more drizzle and a little more cool whip, for each layer. On the last layer of Cool Whip, I drizzle both the Chocolate and the Carmel Syrup/Topping.
