Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, whisk the sugar, cornstarch, salt, and egg yolks. Whisk in the milk and bring to simmer, stirring frequently, over medium heat (it will take 5 to 8 minutes). When the mixture starts to bubble, turn the heat down to low and continue cooking, whisking constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove the pan from the heat and immediately whisk in the butter, vanilla and rum. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly over the pudding to prevent a film from forming. Chill in the refrigerator until cool, a few hours. (To hurry it up, you can place the bowl in an ice bath and whisk occasionally until cold.)
- Once the pudding is cold, place the heavy cream in a medium mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip on medium-low speed until the whisk or beaters begin to leave tracks in the cream. Add the confectioners' sugar and whip until the cream holds medium, silky peaks. Go slowly towards the end; if it gets grainy or curdled, you've gone too far. Use a rubber spatula to fold the whipped cream into the cold pudding.
- Spoon a large dollop of the pudding mixture into the bottom of each parfait glass. Top with one layer of cookie pieces and one layer of sliced bananas. Repeat once and top with a final layer of pudding. Crumble some of the cookie pieces and sprinkle over top. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or up to 12 hours.
- *Do not slice the bananas until you are ready to assemble the parfaits.

BANANA PUDDING PARFAITS
Steps:
- Mix sugar and flour in a saucepan. Separate eggs. Reserve whites for meringue. Stir yolks with a fork until blended. Add milk in same cup as egg yolks. Slowly stir egg/milk mixture into sugar/flour mixture until well blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until very thick. Remove thickened custard from heat, add butter and allow to melt. Cool. Add vanilla flavoring.
- Divide half of the crushed wafers between 4 (8-ounce) glasses or goblets. Top each with 5 to 6 slices banana. Pour half of the cooled custard evenly into each glass over the bananas. Repeat each layer with the remaining ingredients. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To make the meringue: whisk together the reserved egg whites and sugar in a large heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water and whisk constantly until the sugar is dissolved and whites are very hot to the touch. Transfer the mixture to the bowl of a standing mixer. Whip the whites until stiff, glossy peaks form and the meringue is cool. Add the vanilla and mix well. Spoon the meringue or pipe with a piping bag over the pudding in each glass.
- Using a hand-held blowtorch, brown the meringue until golden. Serve immediately.
CLASSIC FLUFFY BANANA PUDDING
We ate this for the first time at a BBQ place in Stephenville, TX and fell in love with it!! So, I was determined to come home and figure out how to make it...found this recipe on another website and it was identical to the one at the BBQ place :)I usually make a double recipe so it makes a large bowl.

Steps:
- 1. Combine sweetened condensed milk and cold water in large mixing bowl, add dry pudding mix and beat on medium speed for 3 mins or until smooth and then chill for a few mins.
- 2. Whip heavy cream into stiff peaks and then fold cream into pudding mixture.
- 3. In a large glass bowl, spread 1/2 cup of pudding on bottom of dish (or enough to cover the bottom)and top with a layer of vanilla wafers, followed by layer of bananas and then a pretty thick layer of pudding. Continue with layers, finishing with pudding on top. To crush wafers for the topping, I used a large zip lock bag and crush enough to cover top of pudding and your desired thickness of crushed wafers. Chill for 5 hrs and enjoy!

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.
Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pudding will be.
- Use cold ingredients: Cold ingredients will help to create a fluffy pudding.
- Don't overmix the pudding: Overmixing will make the pudding tough.
- Chill the pudding before serving: Chilling the pudding will help it to set and firm up.
- Garnish the pudding with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include whipped cream, sliced bananas, and chopped nuts.
Conclusion:
Fluffy banana pudding parfaits are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
