SUPER SIMPLE MINI CHOCOLATE BANANA CREAM PIES

Super Simple Mini Chocolate Banana Cream Pies image

This is a nice simple recipe that is quick to put together and very tasty. They are extremely fast to make if you microwave the filling. Time does not include cooling period. Note: I use "Cook & Serve" pudding for this recipe as I feel that it has a better taste and texture then instant. If you chose to use instant pudding, please make sure to follow the package directions.

To serve, let the pies come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
