Steps:

• Yes, you are going to have to split a package of vanilla pudding mix. This means that you will need a kitchen scale.
• Place the cream and half & half in a bowl, add the instant pudding mix.
• With an electric mixer, whip on low speed for 1 minute until combined scraping sides. Just get it all mixed in, it will start to thicken a little.
• Whip on medium speed for just a minute or so longer until it thickens a bit more.
• Then power it up to high for a minute or so more. Be careful not to overmix. My first attempt yielded a deflated filling because I overmixed. You want it to come out the consistency of mousse.
• Place a layer of sliced bananas in the pie shells.
• Spoon some filling over the bananas and smooth to the edges of the shells. Don't lay it on too thick, we want to get 3 layers out of the filling.This stuff is thick and will try to pull up the bananas, so be patient.
• Add two more layers of banana slices and filling. The filling should be thick enough to be able to mound it up higher than the crust.
• Top with whipped cream, drizzle with chocolate sauce, and garnish with banana slices.
