Fold ¾ of the tub of whipped topping into the pudding mix, just until incorporated. 3. On a long, rectangular serving dish or rectangular casserole dish, arrange 4 of the graham crackers into a long rectangle. 4. Using a piping bag, pipe a layer of the pudding mix over the graham crackers. 5. Top with banana slices from 1 banana. 6. Repeat the layering process two more times. For the 4th layer, just add graham crackers and banana cream. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. 7. Just before serving, heat the chocolate bark and milk over medium heat, whisking constantly until melted and smooth. Cool for 15 minutes.
