Make the Vanilla Pudding

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Let it cool slightly before using.

Layer the Ingredients
In a large serving dish or individual cups, start by placing a layer of vanilla wafers at the bottom. Then, add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the wafers. Pour half of the prepared vanilla pudding over the bananas, followed by a drizzle of caramel sauce. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients, finishing with a layer of pudding on top.
