Equipment

  • measuring cups
  • 8x8 Pan
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Knife
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk Optional

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Box Nilla wafers
  • 1 5.1 oz Instant Vanilla pudding
  • 3-4 Ripe bananas
  • 3 Cups Milk
  • 8 Oz Whipped topping

Instructions
 

  • Add the entire package of instant pudding to the mixing bowl.
  • Pour three cups of milk into the bowl with the pudding mix.
  • Whisk pudding and milk together until thoroughly combined.
  • Add half container of whipped topping to bowl with pudding and mix together thoroughly.
  • Place a single layer of Nilla wafers on the bottom of the pan or dish.
  • Slice bananas into approximately ⅓-1/4 inch slices. And lay half of the slices in a single layer on top of the Nilla wafers.
  • Spoon approximately half of the pudding and whipped topping mix into the banana slices and spread it evenly.
  • Repeat this layering again starting with a layer of Nilla wafers.
  • Once the second layer is complete, add the second half of the whipped topping on top of the last layer of pudding.
  • If desired, crumble a few nilla wafers and sprinkle them on top.

Notes

Tips:
  • Thaw the whipped topping before using so that it mixes and spreads easily. This can be done on the counter for an hour or so, or overnight in the fridge.
  • Toss banana slices in lemon juice to prevent them from browning if you plan to keep for a few days or freeze leftovers.
  • Don't make banana slices too thick or too thin to ensure the perfect texture for your pudding.
Serving, Storage & Freezing:
  • You can serve immediately. However chilling for a few hours or overnight allows the flavors to meld nicely.
  • Store covered, in and airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
  • Freeze any leftovers that won't be eaten in a few days by placing it in an airtight container or freezer bag and putting into he freezer for up 4 weeks..
