Banana Pudding
I don’t want any hate mail over this recipe, so I’ll just go ahead and say now that this is the quick and easy recipe and, yes ma’am, it ain’t nowhere near as good as the long and slow recipe.
Ingredients
2-4 ripe bananas, sliced 1/2-inch slices
1 large package (5-something or another oz.) instant vanilla pudding
3 cups COLD milk
1 8-oz. container Cool Whip lite, thawed
1 box Nilla wafers cookies (sorry for being redundant with the wafers-cookies, but there just might be somebody
out there that don’t know that a wafer is a cookie
Mix milk with pudding mix. In a large bowl, put a layer of cookies on bottom, and then put on a layer of bananas (using a third of them). Pour a third of the pudding on bananas and spread a third of the container of Cool whip on top of the pudding.
Put another layer (or two) of cookies (I like to use a lot of cookies so that I don’t get that nasty nanner pudding juice that you sometimes get after a couple of days), put on a layer of bananas (again, using a third of them), pour a third of the pudding, and spread a third of the container of Cool whip on top of the pudding.
You should know what you’re gonna do next … another layer of cookies, the last of the nanners, the last of the pudding, and top it off with the last of the Cool Whip.
If you want to get fancy, you can crumble some cookies on top of the Cool Whip as garnish.
Chill for a while. It’s best to serve this the next day, but I’ll understand if you can’t wait.
