COWBOY-UP PUDDING

Steps:

• 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.
• 8. Can serve right away, or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
