Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 package 3.4 ounces instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large bananas peeled and sliced
  • 36 Nilla Wafer cookies

Instructions
 

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the cold milk and instant vanilla pudding mix until thickened. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  • In another medium mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form (about 2–3 minutes).
  • Set 6 clear plastic 9-ounce punch cups on the counter or a cookie sheet.
  • Place banana slices along the bottom of each cup around the sides so they are visible from the outside.
  • Scoop ¼ cup of the vanilla pudding into the bottom of each cup and spread it out to fully cover the banana slices.
  • Place 4–5 Nilla Wafers into each cup on top of the pudding layer, positioning the cookies so the round sides face outward and are visible through the cups.
  • Scoop ¼ cup of whipped cream into each cup and spread it out to fully cover the cookies.
  • Divide the remaining vanilla pudding evenly among the cups.
  • Top each with a dollop of whipped cream and a Nilla Wafer for garnish. If serving immediately, add a slice of banana on top as well.
