In a second large mixing bowl, beat heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.

Fold 2/3 of the whipped cream into the pudding mixture.

In the remaining whipped cream, fold in 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar and refrigerate.

In a 3-quart trifle dish, layer 1/4 of the vanilla wafer cookies, then peel and slice 1/4 of the bananas.

Add 1/4 of the pudding mixture and spread into an even layer.

Repeat the layers with the remaining cookies, bananas, and pudding mixture until you have four layers.

Spread the remaining whipped cream over the top and garnish with extra cookies and banana slices if desired.

Refrigerate for about two hours before serving.
