Directions

Such a dessert as easy nilla wafer banana pudding doesn’t require advanced cooking skills, but the result is quite impressive for efforts involved. You may store this pudding covered in the fridge for two days (then it’ll resemble tiramisu), but it’s recommended to consume this dessert while cookies are still crunchy. Grab a cup of black coffee, cappuccino, latte, or green tea, and then enjoy to the fullest.

Steps

1 Done	Prepare all the ingredients for your pudding. Wash the eggs, measure all wet and dry ingredients, let the butter soften.
2 Done	Mix sugar and cornstarch.
3 Done	Add some kosher salt.
4 Done	Mix in six yolks.
5 Done	Pour all the milk in the large saucepan to the rest of pudding ingredients, mix thoroughly, unless you love your lumps to stay.
6 Done	Place the saucepan on medium heat and cook (don’t forget to stir!) until it starts simmering. Then cook some more, about 4-7 minutes, until your pudding thickens enough.
7 Done	Take the pudding from the heat and immediately stir in butter.
8 Done	Then add some rum. After that, you must cool this dessert in the fridge for 2-8 hours.
9 Done	While you are waiting for the pudding to chill, bake nilla wafers. Start making them by mixing butter and sugar until light and fluffy (you may use an electric mixer). Add an egg.
10 Done	Add some rum in the dough.
11 Done	Sprinkle the baking powder over your cookie dough.
12 Done	Sprinkle some salt.
13 Done	Add all the flour.
14 Done	Beat the dough only to combine the mix, don’t overdo it!
15 Done	Mold cookies with the tiniest scoop you have or just take ½ tsp of dough to mold the cookies. Place them on the baking sheet with parchment paper. You should leave at least 5-cm space between each of them.
16 Done	Bake for 10-11 minutes, they should get nicely golden. Cool nilla wafers on the rack.
17 Done	Start assembling your dessert by putting one cookie at the bottom of dishes. Or you may crumble two cookies on bottom.
18 Done	Then add 2-3 tbsp of pudding into each serving dish. You should use ⅓ of all pudding in this step.
19 Done	Thinly slice bananas - use ½-⅓ of banana for each portion.
20 Done	Crush three cookies in chunks for each portion.
21 Done	Divide the rest of pudding and slice the remaining bananas.
22 Done	Crush 3-4 cookies in small bits for decoration. Repeat with other servings. Approximately the half of prepared cookies will be left, so store them for your next magnificent pudding, or add more cookies while assembling this dessert (though less nilla wafers and more banana pudding taste better).
