Equipment
- electric mixer optional
- 2 mixing bowls
- Measuring cups & spoons
- rubber spatula
- whisk
- Trifle dish or large bowl
- Paring Knife
- Cutting board
Ingredients
- 4 Bananas ripe and fresh
- 11 oz Box of vanilla ("nilla") wafers
- 3.5 oz Box of french vanilla instant pudding
- 1 ½ c Whole milk
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 8 oz Sour cream
- 8 oz Original Cool Whip thawed, but still cold
- 3-4 drops Yellow food coloring optional
- 2 c heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 c Powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, mix together vanilla pudding, milk, and sweetened condensed milk. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes.
- Mix in sour cream and Cool Whip. If using, mix in yellow food coloring until thoroughly incorporated.
- Beat cream and powdered sugar together into stiff peaks (this will help it stand up in the trifle). This is easiest with a stand mixer, but you can do it with an egg beater or hand mixer as well.
- Assemble your trifle in this order: an even layer of Nilla wafers, an even layer of fresh banana slices, 1/3 of the pudding, and 1/3 of the whipped cream. Repeat 2 more times, then top with the remaining Nilla wafers and banana slices.
- Chill at least 2 hours, but you may also do overnight. Serve to a satisfied crowd.
