Instructions:
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well coated with butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch square pan lined with parchment paper. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, whisk the instant banana pudding mix with cold milk for about 2 minutes, until it begins to thicken. Gently fold in the whipped cream until fully incorporated. Add the banana slices and gently mix to combine.
- Assemble the Bars: Pour the pudding mixture over the chilled crust and spread it evenly. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.
