Aunt D's Banana Pudding

This is a family recipe that my great aunt came up with years ago, and actually sold it to Betty Crocker! Of course, they didn't pay her nearly enough! She could have made a fortune off of it! Oh well ... She always makes it for family get togethers! It makes a HUGE bowl, so you will want to make sure you have a big crowd, or you can half the recipe.

Here is what you need ...
2 large vanilla pudding mixes
6 cups milk
1 tsp. vanilla
8 oz. sour cream
1 can eagle brand
1 large cool whip, thawed out
bananas, sliced
2 boxes/bags of vanilla wafers
I use skim milk, fat free sour cream, eagle brand, and cool whip if I can find it. Still tastes GREAT and is low-fat! Can't beat that!!
Mix pudding, milk, and vanilla together in large bowl. Add sour cream, eagle brand and mix well. Fold in the cool whip.
Layer first cookies, then pudding, and then bananas in a large bowl. Keep doing this until you are done! End with a layer of pudding and you can top the pudding off with cookies if you would like.
I'm not a fan of cool whip, so I put all the cool whip in the pudding mixture. If you want, you can do 2/3 of the cool whip in pudding mixture, and put cool whip on top.
Made a little Christmas tree for our Christmas get together!
