Ingredients
FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM
- 4 tablespoon sugar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
FOR THE PUDDING
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoon cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cups whole milk
- 4 large egg yolks room temp, save the egg whites for the meringue
- 3 tablespoon butter unsalted, chilled and cubed
- 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
FOR THE MERINGUE
- 4 large egg whites room temp
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
FOR ASSEMBLING THE TRIFLE
- 5 to 7 large bananas ripe, but firm - peeled and sliced
- 50 to 70 vanilla wafers about 1 & ½ boxes
Instructions
MAKE THE WHIPPED CREAM
- Place a metal mixing bowl in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.
- Add the sugar, cream, and vanilla to the bowl and mix on high until thickened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
MAKE THE PUDDING
- In a large skillet, over NO heat, mix together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
- Pour in the milk, using a whisk to fully incorporate and dissolve the sugar and cornstarch.
- Whisk in the egg yolks until fully incorporated. Now, mix in the chilled butter
- Turn the heat on to medium, and stir frequently to avoid scrambling the eggs. Cook until the mixture begins to thicken, about 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, stirring constantly, and simmer for 1 more minute.
- Remove from the heat and then stir in the vanilla.
- Let cool slightly then transfer to a bowl and chill in the refrigerator until completely cooled. About 4 to 5 hours. The pudding will thicken slightly more as it chills.
MAKE THE MERINGUE (No more than 2 hours before assembling the trifle)
- In a metal mixing bowl, beat the eggs whites on medium speed until foamy.
- Add the cream of tartar and increase speed to high and beat until soft peaks begin to form.
- Add the vanilla and sugar and beat until peaks are stiff and glossy, but not dry, about 4 more minutes.
ASSEMBLE THE TRIFLE
- In your trifle, first add a layer of vanilla wafers then add a layer of sliced bananas. Now, spread half of the whipped cream.
- On top of the whipped cream, add another layer of wafers then bananas. Next, spread half of the pudding .
- Repeat this process with the remaining whipped cream and pudding. Add another layer of wafers and bananas on top of the second layer of pudding.
- Use a spatula to add all of the meringue on top of the bananas. If desired, use a kitchen torch to slightly brown the meringue.
- Chill for 4 hours, or overnight.
