"This is a modified recipe from one I found in Cooking Light years ago. The original called for a couple of tablespoons of graham cracker crumbs & some Cool Whip, and was called Banana Cream Pie...but I prefer it the way it is listed here. It's also a great way to get some more calcium into your diet. If you have dry milk powder, add it in. It just makes this more creamy and gets extra calcium in your diet."
