Add blondie batter to the pan and bake for 15-20 minutes until just set.

For the Cheesecake Topping:
Using your hand mixer, whip heavy cream in a medium-sized bowl until stiff peaks develop then refrigerate and clean beaters.
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until nice and fluffy with a hand mixer.
Slowly add in the sugar, banana pudding powder, milk, and vanilla extract. Beat until well incorporated.
Carefully fold pre-made whipped cream into the cream cheese batter.
