BANANA GRAHAM CRACKER PUDDING
This is my Granny Sell's recipe. She never wrote it down before she passed away, so I've tried to copy it with trial and error. It is such a family favorite that I usually double the recipe when I make it.

Steps:
- Mix sugar,cornstarch, and salt in saucepan. Add milk. Cook and stir over medium heat until thick and bubbling. Cook and stir 2 minutes more, then remove from heat. Add a small amount of hot mixture to beaten egg yolks, then quickly add back to rest of mixture. Cook and stir for 2 more minutes, then remove from heat and add butter and vanilla.
- Layer in serving bowl. I put 1/2 of grahams on bottom, 1/2 bananas next, 1/2 pudding mixture next. Repeat layers and add 1/4 cup graham crumbs on top for garnish. Makes 4 or 5 servings.
- I usually make this in the morning, because it tastes wonderful after it has cooled all day in refrigerator and all the flavors marry. I also double this because there is never enough for all of my family.

BANANA PUDDING WITH GRAHAM CRACKERS
I made this recipe when I was craving banana pudding but out of the traditional Nilla® wafers. When I realized the graham crackers would make nice even layers a snap, the idea to make it in an 8x8-inch pan came quickly. It tastes amazing, and the crackers soften quicker than the wafers do. The addition of the Dream Whip® topping mix makes this very creamy and the even layering means you taste all three elements in every bite!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter a baking sheet. In a medium bowl, stir the graham-cracker crumbs and melted butter together. Press the crumb mixture onto the baking sheet in a circle that is approximately 8 inches in diameter. Bake for 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Use a small spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate chips thickly over the baked crumbs on the baking sheet. Let the crunch sit until the chocolate is firm. [The chocolate holds the crunch together in large pieces so it does not crumble when it is transferred to the pudding. I always have a problem with this step, but if it crumbles it doesn't alter the flavor :-)].
- In the bottom of a 2-quart serving bowl, spread 1/2 of the banana slices. Spread about 1/2 of the pudding over the bananas and sprinkle about 1/3 of the graham crunch (breaking it up with a spatula as you transfer it) over the pudding. Repeat the layering once.
- Spread the whipped cream over the crunch and sprinkle with the remaining crunch. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight and serve cold.

Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pudding will be.
- Use high-quality graham crackers: Not all graham crackers are created equal. Choose a brand that you like the taste of and that is made with wholesome ingredients.

- Serve the pudding with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include whipped cream, fruit, and nuts.
