Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5.1 oz Instant banana pudding mix
- 3 cups Cold milk
- 20 pieces Nutter Butter cookies
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 3 medium Bananas
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant banana pudding mix and cold milk for 2 minutes. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin rounds. Set them aside for layering.
Roughly crush the Nutter Butter cookies into bite-size pieces. You can use a zip-top bag and a rolling pin for this step.
Begin assembling the trifle in a large trifle dish or similar glass bowl to showcase the layers. Start with a layer of the banana pudding at the bottom.
Add a layer of crushed Nutter Butter cookies on top of the pudding.
Arrange a layer of banana slices over the cookies, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Spread a layer of whipped cream over the bananas to complete the first set of layers.
Repeat the layering process (pudding, cookies, bananas, whipped cream) until you run out of ingredients, making sure the topmost layer is whipped cream.
Optionally, garnish the trifle with a few whole Nutter Butter cookies, extra banana slices, or a sprinkle of cookie crumbs for decoration.
Chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to soften slightly.
Serve with a large spoon, scooping down to ensure each serving includes all the layers.
