Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pudding

    In a large bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.

  2. 2

    Add Condensed Milk and Flavor

    Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until well combined.

  3. 3

    Layer the Ingredients

    In a trifle dish or individual cups, layer the vanilla wafers, sliced bananas, and pudding mixture. Continue layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with the pudding on top.

  4. 4

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until soft peaks form.

  5. 5

    Top with Whipped Cream

    Spread the whipped cream over the top layer of pudding. Optionally, garnish with additional banana slices or crushed vanilla wafers.

  6. 6

    Chill and Serve

    Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
