Ingredients

• 14 sheets Graham crackers
• 3.4 ounces Instant vanilla pudding mix
• 2 cups Milk
• 3 large Bananas
• 1 cup Fresh strawberries
• 1 cup Crushed pineapple (drained)
• 16 ounces Whipped topping (thawed)
• 0.5 cup Chocolate syrup
• 0.25 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
• 8 whole Maraschino cherries

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened. Set aside.

Step 2

In a 9x13-inch baking dish, arrange a single layer of graham crackers on the bottom, breaking them as needed to fit the dish.

Step 3

Spread half of the prepared pudding evenly over the graham crackers.

Step 4

Slice the bananas into coin-shaped pieces and layer them over the pudding.

Step 5

Arrange half of the fresh strawberries (sliced) and half of the drained crushed pineapple over the bananas.

Step 6

Spread half of the whipped topping over the fruit layer, smoothing it out evenly.

Step 7

Repeat the layers: graham crackers, remaining pudding, banana slices, the rest of the strawberries and pineapple, and the remaining whipped topping.

Step 8

Drizzle the chocolate syrup over the top of the whipped topping in a decorative pattern.

Step 9

Sprinkle with chopped nuts, if using, and garnish with maraschino cherries.

Step 10

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the crackers to soften.

Step 11

Slice and serve chilled.
