Ingredients
- 1 box (5.1 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 2 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1 package (12 oz) vanilla wafers
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until it thickens (about 2 minutes). Set aside.
- In another bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk until soft peaks form (about 3-4 minutes).
- Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the prepared pudding until smooth and combined.
- In a serving dish, layer the bottom with vanilla wafers.
- Add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the wafers, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries.
- Spread a layer of pudding over the fruit and wafers.
- Repeat the layering process (wafer, banana, strawberry, pudding) until all ingredients are used.
- Finish with a final layer of pudding and top with extra strawberries and bananas for garnish.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
Notes
- You can use other fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or peaches for a twist.
- For a vegan version, substitute the dairy ingredients with plant-based alternatives like coconut cream and almond milk.
- To prevent bananas from browning, coat them in a little lemon juice before layering.
