Ingredients

  • 2 3oz Boxes Instant French Vanilla Pudding Mix
  • 4 Cups Milk cold
  • 1 Pint Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 3 Bananas sliced
  • 1 Box Vanilla Wafers

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl add the milk and the instant vanilla pudding, mix well with a whisk then set in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to set up.
  • In the meantime, add the heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until stiff peaks form.
  • Choose 4 glasses, (I like to use my stem-less wine glasses for this). Spoon some vanilla pudding into the bottom of each glass.
  • Add a layer of banana slices.
  • Add the cream to a piping bag with a 1M tip and pipe a layer of cream on top of the banana slices.
  • Top with a layer of vanilla wafers.
  • Repeat with another two more layers (or whatever your glasses will fit).
  • Finish with a layer of cream on top. Decorate with some crumbled vanilla wafers.
  • Allow to sit in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes before eating so that everything can come together.

Notes

Banana pudding can be very forgiving. There's no right or wrong way to layer this dessert, just whatever feels right.
I like to use a piping bag for the cream just to keep it a little tidier. I tried spooning it in there and I was losing the prettiness in the glass.
