Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Ripe bananas
- 12 pieces Low sodium vanilla wafers
- 3.5 ounces Low sodium vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups 2% milk
- 1 cup Low sodium whipped topping
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 6 leaves Mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the low sodium vanilla pudding mix and 2% milk. Whisk together for about 2 minutes or until the mixture thickens slightly, then let it set for 5 minutes.
While the pudding sets, slice the bananas into thin, even rounds.
In a blender or food processor, grind the low sodium vanilla wafers into coarse crumbs.
Fold the low sodium whipped topping and vanilla extract into the set pudding gently until well incorporated.
To assemble the shooters, take 6 small dessert shooter glasses and start with a layer of banana slices at the bottom.
Top the banana layer with a layer of the pudding mixture, using a spoon to smooth it out evenly.
Sprinkle a layer of the crushed vanilla wafers over the pudding in each glass.
Repeat the layers: another round of banana slices, pudding, and finish with a wafer crumb topping.
Chill the assembled shooters in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, garnish each pudding shooter with a mint leaf for a fresh touch.
