Banana Split Pudding Dessert

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1 (8 ounce) carton frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip(R)), divided
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple
• 3 cups milk
• 2 (2.5 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix
• 1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries
• 2 bananas, sliced
• chocolate syrup, or to taste
• 12 maraschino cherries

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Combine flour, pecans, and butter in a bowl; press into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Cool completely.
4. Mix 1 1/2 cups whipped topping, cream cheese, and confectioners' sugar together in a bowl; spread over cooled crust. Layer pineapple over cream cheese mixture layer.
5. Beat milk and pudding mixes together in a bowl until thickened and creamy; fold in bananas and spread over pineapple. Layer strawberries over pudding mixture; top with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 2 hours.
6. Drizzle chocolate syrup over whipped topping layer and arrange the cherries equally apart from each other so each piece gets 1 cherry.
