Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk for about 2 minutes until thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a large serving dish or individual cups, layer half of the strawberries at the bottom.
Spoon half of the pudding mixture evenly over the strawberries.
Add half of the banana slices on top of the pudding.
Sprinkle half of the crushed graham crackers over the bananas.
Repeat with remaining strawberries, pudding, bananas, and graham crackers.
Spread whipped topping over the final layer.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Garnish with mint leaves if desired.

Notes

Use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla for a richer flavor.

Swap graham crackers for vanilla wafers or shortbread cookies.

Add caramel or chocolate sauce between layers for extra sweetness.

Mix in blueberries or raspberries with strawberries for variety.

For a lighter version, use sugar-free pudding and light whipped topping.

Store covered in the fridge for up to 2 days. Do not freeze.
