CATEGORIES
INGREDIENTS
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
- 3/4 cup cold water
- 1 small box instant vanilla pudding mix (3.4 oz)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
- 4 cups heavy whipping cream
- 5-6 bananas, cut into thin slices

- 1 box Nilla wafers
DIRECTIONS
- In a medium bowl whisk together sweetened condensed milk, water, pudding mix and vanilla bean paste until well combined
- Cover pudding mix with plastic wrap, making sure to pass it down onto the mix to prevent it from forming a film on top
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow pudding to set up
- Once ready to assemble in the bowl of a stand mixer, or a large bowl, whip the cream until stiff peaks form
- Using a spatula gently fold the pudding mixture into the whipped cream until all is incorporated but making sure to not over mix
- To build the pudding place a layer of pudding on the bottom of the trifle bowl (or in mason jars)
- Top with a layer of bananas
- Drizzle caramel sauce over bananas
- Next spoon on another layer of pudding
- Top with Nilla wafers
- Repeat until trifle (or mason jars) are full
- Finish with additional sliced bananas or Nilla wafers and caramel sauce
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for a few hours, but not much longer than that or the cookies will get mushy
