Ingredients

  • 5 oz box instant vanilla pudding
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 oz whipped topping thawed, divided
  • 4 large bananas
  • 12 oz box vanilla wafers

Instructions

  • Pudding: In a large mixing bowl, whisk vanilla pudding, milk, and sweetened condensed milk together then stir in the vanilla extract. Cover and refrigerate the pudding mix for 30 minutes.
  • Prep: Once the pudding has chilled and set, using a spatula, fold half of the whipped topping into the pudding until combined.
  • Grab the bananas and dice them into 1/2" slices and keep them nearby for the next steps.
  • Assemble: In a trifle dish or large bowl, cover the bottom with one layer of the vanilla wafers. Top with a layer of sliced bananas and then ⅓ of the pudding mix. Repeat with 2 more layers ending with pudding mix.
  • Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
  • Serve: Top with whipped cream, extra banana slices, and vanilla wafers.

Notes

Place left over pudding in an airtight container or cover it tightly with plastic wrap before storing it in the fridge. 
Stored properly, the pudding can last for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. However, it is recommended to consume it within 2 days for optimal freshness and taste.
