Description
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve entertained during the warmer weather months and served my INDIVIDUAL BANANA PUDDING JARS as dessert. It’s the PERFECT dessert for so many reasons:
1: You need to make these in advance (perfect for entertaining!)
2: You don’t have to worry about extra dessert plates as people enjoy these right out of the jar.
3: These are individually portioned, so it’s easy to know exactly how much dessert to make for your party.
4: When you add the lid, these stack in a cooler and are easy to transport and share outdoors!
5: They’re DELICIOUS!!!
Ingredients
-
1 large instant vanilla pudding, not prepared (we use gf-friendly)
-
3 cups milk
-
1 (14 oz) can Sweetened Condensed Milk
-
1 (12 oz) Cool Whip, thawed a bit
-
1 box Nilla Wafer Cookies (or a g-free substitute)
-
2-3 bananas, sliced (when I make it for my hubby, I just leave the bananas out…some people aren’t banana people)
- As many individual jars as you need! I was able to get 2 dozen puddings out of the 4 oz size jars.
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine pudding mix (do not prepare per box) and milk with a whisk. Next, whisk in sweetened condensed milk and Cool Whip.
- In your individual jars, layer cookies, a few banana slices and some pudding mixture. Repeat until you reach the top and then secure the lids.
- Keep puddings refrigerated until you’re ready to serve. (The longer they sit in the refrigerator, the better they taste…sometimes as long as 3 days.)
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Make sure you’re stirring in the dry pudding mix and not preparing it beforehand.
