Ingredients:
For the Pudding:
– 2 packages (3.4 oz each) instant vanilla pudding mix
– 4 cups cold milk
– 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
For the Whipped Cream:
– 2 cups heavy whipping cream
– 1/4 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Trifle Layers:
– 4 large bananas, sliced
– 1 box vanilla wafers or graham crackers, crushed
– Additional banana slices for topping
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix, cold milk, and vanilla extract until it thickens. Set aside in the refrigerator to firm up.
2. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
3. Assemble the Trifle:
– Start by placing a layer of crushed vanilla wafers or graham crackers at the bottom of a trifle dish.
– Add a layer of vanilla pudding over the crushed wafers.
– Add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the pudding.
– Spread a layer of whipped cream on top of the bananas.
– Repeat the layers (crushed wafers, pudding, bananas, whipped cream) until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.
4. Sprinkle extra crushed wafers or graham crackers on top and arrange additional banana slices for decoration.
5. Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
