Blueberry Banana Cream Pie

Blueberry Banana Cream Pie
Submitted by Julie McHood

• 6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 3/4 cup cold water
• 1 package (3.4 ounces - the small box) instant vanilla pudding mix
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped (no sugar added)
• 1 medium banana, cut into thin slices
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 1 prepared crust ( I used a traditional crust…but you could always use a store bought vanilla wafer crust)
• additional blueberries for garnish

1. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the condensed milk and beat until smooth. Then add in the water and pudding mix. Fold in whipped cream.
2. Spread half of the cream mixture into prepared crust. Top with bananas and blueberries. Spread with remaining cream mixture. Refrigerate for 3 hours

note: this makes a lot of filling. You need a deep dish pie crust, or you could always split it into two pies, and double the fruit. :)
