Steps:
- Have ready a fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl. In a medium saucepan, off heat, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Very gradually (a few tablespoons at a time), whisk in milk, taking care to dissolve cornstarch; whisk in egg yolks.
- Whisking constantly, cook mixture over medium heat until the first large bubble forms and sputters. Reduce heat to low; whisking constantly, cook 1 minute. Remove from heat, and immediately pour through sieve into bowl. Stir butter and vanilla into hot pudding. Let pudding cool slightly; meanwhile, slice bananas.
- In six 8-ounce glasses, alternately layer warm pudding with cookies and bananas, ending with pudding and covering bananas as completely as you can to prevent discoloration. Refrigerate until set, at least 1 hour, and covered with plastic wrap, up to 2 days.
- To serve, top with whipped cream and more crumbled cookies and sliced bananas.
BANANA PUDDING PARFAITS
This idea comes from Kraft Food but the recipe is my interpretation of the idea. If you like, fat free milk and sugar free pudding mix can be used to make it a lighter dessert.

Steps:
- Crush the graham crackers into coarse crumbs, mix in the chopped pecans.
- Place the cold milk in a medium size bowl and sprinkle with pudding; beat with a wire whisk for 2 minutes.
- In 4 wine glasses or parfait glasses, spoon in a couple of tablespoons crumb mixture, top with 4 slices of banana and pudding; repeat layers once.
- Cover each glass with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
- To serve, top each with a dallop of whipped topping and 1 additional slice of banana.
- Please note: To keep the banana slices fresh, place them into 2 cups of water that has been mixed with 1 1/2 tablelspoons of lemon juice. Place on paper towels and pat dry.
Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture. Overripe bananas will make the pudding too mushy.
- Use a whisk to combine the pudding mix and milk until smooth. This will help prevent lumps.
- If you don't have any vanilla wafers, you can use graham crackers or ladyfingers instead.
- Layer the parfait ingredients in a clear glass or jar so that you can see all the layers.
- Chill the parfaits for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to set.
