1 package (4-serving size) chocolate fudge sugar-free fat-free instant pudding and pie filling mix
2 cups fat-free (skim) milk
1 medium ripe banana
2/3 cup Yoplait 99% Fat Free creamy vanilla yogurt (from 2-lb) container
8 waxed paper cups (5-oz size)
8 wooden sticks with rounded ends

2.) Meanwhile, in small bowl, mash banana with fork. Stir in yogurt.

3.) Place paper cups in 8-inch pan for easier handling. Spoon 2 tablespoons pudding into each cup. Divide yogurt mixture evenly among cups. Top with remaining pudding mixture. Tap cups on work surface to level top. Insert wooden stick into center of each pop.
