Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 oz Vanilla instant pudding mix
- 3 cups Whole milk
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 3 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 4 large Bananas
- 12 oz Vanilla wafers
- 0.5 cup Caramel sauce
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla instant pudding mix, whole milk, and sweetened condensed milk. Whisk together until smooth and thickened. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to set.
In another chilled bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream and add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the whipping cream until it forms stiff peaks. Set aside 1 cup of whipped cream for topping.
Fold the remaining whipped cream gently into the chilled pudding mixture, ensuring a smooth and creamy texture without deflating the whipped cream.
Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
In a 9x13-inch dish or a large trifle bowl, begin layering: Start with a layer of vanilla wafers at the bottom, followed by a single layer of banana slices, and then spread a generous layer of the pudding mixture over the top. Repeat the layers (wafers, bananas, pudding) until the dish is full, finishing with a layer of pudding on top.
Spread the reserved whipped cream over the final pudding layer. Drizzle caramel sauce decoratively over the whipped cream layer.
Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy your Jazzy Banana Pudding!
