Ingredients
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 cups very cold water
- 2 3.4 oz boxes vanilla instant pudding
- 4 cups heavy cream cold
- 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 11 oz box Nilla Wafers set aside a few for garnish
- 5 barely ripe bananas plus a few slices for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and the cold water until fully combined.
- Using an electric mixer on low speed, gradually add and blend one box of pudding mix into the sweetened condensed milk mixture, and whisk until it is smooth.
- Cover the pudding mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or overnight.
- In a large bowl, beat the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Once the cream begins to thicken, keep beating on high speed until stiff. Blend in the vanilla extract.
- Next, fold the chilled pudding mixture into the whipped cream, and stir gently until fully combined.
- After that, add 5 tablespoons of dry vanilla pudding, from the remaining package, and beat until you get a fluffy consistency.
- Assemble the dessert in a clear glass trifle bowl by adding 1/3 layer of the pudding, top with nilla the wafers, and ⅓ of the bananas. Repeat this again, then finish the dessert with a heaping layer of pudding.
- Make sure all of the bananas are completely covered with the pudding mixture or they will turn brown more quicker.
- After assembling, chill the trifle for at least 4 hours so the vanilla wafers will soften.
- Garnish with nilla wafers crumbs and sliced bananas right before serving.
