My family has been getting a charge out of banana pudding for quite a long time, as I’m certain large numbers of you have also. I figured the time had come to share the formula and photographs with every one of you!
When evaluating various renditions and varieties as the years progressed, the formula that stuck is Paula Deen’s Not Yo’ Mama’s Banana Pudding. She knows her banana pudding, without a doubt.
Bananas.
Start with new, aged bananas. Ideally ones that are still firm, as the bananas will mellow considerably more as this sits in the cooler.
Treats.
Pepperidge Farm Chessmen Cookies are scrumptious shortbread treats and make an incredible layering treat. On the off chance that you can’t discover them, spread treats or Nilla Wafers will work as well!
The treats mollify as this sits, similar as in a Chocolate Eclair Cake or Icebox Cake. They become “cake-like” and astonishing.
Pudding.
I select banana cream moment pudding blend. I think it heightens the banana flavor to a delectable level. Notwithstanding, Paula Deen utilizes French Vanilla, and I think even plain vanilla would work as well.
Make certain to utilize moment pudding for best outcomes.
Whipped Cream versus Cool Whip
I decided to utilize Cool Whip for my banana pudding, yet in the event that you need to utilize a hand crafted whipped cream that would work as well. It very well could not be as steady. In the event that serving in a triviality bowl, thoroughly go for the whipped cream!
