6. Serve and Enjoy:

• Once chilled, remove from the refrigerator and give the dessert a gentle stir to loosen the layers slightly before serving.
• Scoop out generous portions into individual bowls, and enjoy the perfect fusion of strawberry cheesecake, banana pudding, and vanilla wafer goodness!

Recipe Variations:

• Chocolate Cheesecake Banana Pudding: Swap the cheesecake layer with a chocolate cheesecake filling. Add cocoa powder to the cream cheese mixture to give it a rich, chocolatey flavor.
• Lemon Banana Pudding: For a citrus twist, add lemon zest to the banana pudding layer and top the dessert with fresh lemon slices or a dollop of lemon curd.
• Vegan Version: Use coconut milk, vegan cream cheese, and dairy-free whipped cream for a completely plant-based version of this dessert.
• Boozy Banana Pudding: For an adult version, add a splash of rum, bourbon, or amaretto to the strawberry layer to give it a rich, aromatic flavor.
