Best Ever Easy Banana Pudding Recipe
2 small boxes of Vanilla Instant Pudding (I use Jello brand)
1 can of Eagle Brand (or other brand works too) Sweet Condensed Milk
1 – one pint of heavy whipping cream
5-6 bananas
1 box of Nilla Vanilla Wafers (you can use the regular size or the small ones)
Lemon juice (to keep bananas from turning brown)
1 clear trifle bowl (makes a beautiful presentation so you can see the layers)
Directions:
1. In the medium size bowl, open and pour the heaving whipping cream.
2. Using the mixer, whip it until it thickens (for approx. 3-4 minutes). It should not be stiff, it will thicken though.
3. Once you’ve thickened the heaving whipping cream, place it in the refrigerator.
4. Open the Sweet Condensed Milk and pour it into the large bowl. (you may need to scrape the can because it is pretty thick.)
5. Using the can of the Sweet Condensed Milk, fill it with COLD water from the refrigerator.
6. Pour the COLD water into the bowl with the Sweet Condensed Milk (SCM).
7. Using a whisk, whisk the COLD water and SCM until it is mixed well.
11. Open the packages of pudding and pour them into the water and SCM mix.
12. Mix with whisk until the pudding is mixed with the water and SCM. (2-3 minutes)
13. Remove the whipping cream from refrigerator.
14. Pour whipping cream into the pudding mix.
15. Using the hand mixer, mix until the mixture thickens (but not too thick where it is stiff)
16. Using glass bowl, layer bananas, wafers, pudding. Continue until you run out of pudding.
