Personal Notes:
My mom made this many times over the years. My husband and kids are not crazy for Jello so I will sometimes make extra pudding to make 4 total layers ( pudding with bananas and cake/ Cool Whip/ pudding mixture/ Cool Whip. It will need to sit overnight to let the pudding get into the pound cake a little. It is more like banana pudding this way - could use vanilla wafers instead of pound cake.
