Banana pudding is one of my all-time favorite desserts! There’s just something about a spoonful of cool and creamy pudding with a sliver of banana.
I remember my mom making banana pudding for the family as we were growing up. I always tried to sneak the wafers before she placed them in the pudding. Once the pudding was chilled, I would scoop it by large spoonfuls.
My favorite part of banana pudding recipes are where the wafers and pudding mix together. I enjoy the creamy and slightly crunchy texture. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!
