Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 2 small boxes of instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 cup Daisy sour cream
  • 8 ounces of whipped cream or Cool Whip
  • 6 ripe bananas
  • 1 1/4 box Vanilla wafers

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Create the Pudding Base
  2. In a bowl, combine the whole milk and the instant vanilla pudding mix. Mix thoroughly until well combined. Set aside.
  3. Step 2: The Secret Ingredient
  4. Now, here comes the secret ingredient that sets this banana pudding apart—Daisy sour cream. Add one cup of Daisy sour cream to the pudding mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
  5. Step 3: Add Whipped Cream
  6. Fold in the whipped cream or Cool Whip into the pudding mixture. Using a hand mixer will create a fluffy and smooth texture, but a rubber spatula works just fine for combining the ingredients.
  7. Step 4: Layering the Goodness
  8. Start assembling the pudding layers. In a dish, begin with a layer of vanilla wafers, followed by a layer of sliced bananas, and then a layer of the pudding mixture. Repeat this process until you've used up all the ingredients, finishing with a layer of pudding on top.
  9. Step 5: The Finishing Touches
  10. Crumble some vanilla wafers over the top of the pudding for added crunch and visual appeal. If desired, garnish with a few slices of fresh banana to make it even more enticing.
  11. Step 6: Time for Indulgence
  12. It's finally time to satisfy those taste buds. Grab a spoonful of this heavenly creation, and let it melt in your mouth. The creamy texture, the rich banana flavor, and the perfect balance of sweetness will transport you to dessert paradise.
