MAGNOLIA'S FAMOUS BANANA PUDDING

Steps:

• In a stand mixer with the whisk, beat the condensed milk and water on medium speed until well combined, about 1 minute. Add the pudding mix and beat until there are no lumps and the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl, cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• In a stand mixer with the whisk, whip the heavy cream on medium speed for about 1 minute, until the cream starts to thicken, then increase the speed to medium-high and whip until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
• With the mixer running on low speed, add the pudding mixture a spoonful at a time. Mix until well blended and no streaks of pudding remain.
• To assemble, select a trifle bowl or a wide glass bowl with a 4- to 5-quart capacity, or individual serving bowls.
• Saving 4 to 5 cookies for the garnish on top, begin assembly. Spread one-quarter of the pudding over the bottom and layer with one-third of the cookies and one-third of the sliced bananas (enough to cover the layer). Repeat the layering twice more. End with a final layer of pudding. Garnish the top with additional cookies or cookie crumbs.
• Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. Cookies should be tender when poked with a knife. This dessert is best served within 12 hours of assembling.

MAGNOLIA BAKERY BANANA PUDDING WITH A TWIST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, using an immersion blender or a whisk, mix together the milk and instant vanilla pudding mix until well combined. Add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla, if using, and beat well for about 2 minutes more, until well incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or up to overnight, until set.
• In a large bowl, whip the cream with an immersion blender or electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chilled pudding until no white streaks remain. Return to the refrigerator until ready to assemble.
• Add the strawberries and sugar to a blender or food processor. Blend for about 30 seconds, until smooth.
• Slice the bananas into ¼-inch thick rounds. You should have about 4 cups.
• To assemble, arrange ⅓ of the vanilla wafers in the bottom of a 4- to 5-quart, wide, preferably glass, bowl, overlapping as needed. Top with ⅓ of the bananas, ⅓ of the strawberry purée, and ½ of the pudding. Repeat the layering twice more, finishing with the remaining wafers and bananas, strawberry purée, and strawberry slices. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or up to 8 hours, before serving.
• Enjoy!
