Banana Pudding Ingredients

- 1 (5 ¼ oz) package of instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 (8 oz) cartons whipping cream
- 1 (12 oz) box of vanilla wafers, crushed
- 1 (14 oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 9-11 bananas
- 1 can of instant spray cream for topping

Banana Pudding Directions

Mix pudding according to package directions, put aside to set. Whip cream until soft peaks form. Fold whipped cream and sweetened condensed milk into thickened pudding, folding gently until combined. In a 4 quart bowl, begin with a layer of crushed vanilla wafers, then a layer of bananas, next a layer of pudding mixture.

Continue layering until the bowl is filled. Garnish with whole or crushed vanilla wafers. Make the night before serving and place in refrigerator so flavors will mingle. (If this dessert will be without refrigeration for several hours, substitute non-dairy whipped topping for whipping cream. This keeps a better pudding consistency.

When serving top with a spray of canned whipped cream and caramel sauce.
