Mini Mason Jar Easy Banana Pudding
Contains dairy
Ingredients
2 3.4 Ounce Boxes of Instant Vanilla Pudding , (generic is fine)
4 Cups Milk, (low-fat 2%)
16 Ounces Whipped Topping, (Cool Whip works best)
4 Cups Mini Nilla Wafers, (we used Nabisco brand)
2 Medium Fresh Bananas, (skins removed and sliced)
Instructions
First, use a stand mixer or large bowl and hand mixer to blend the pudding mix and the milk. This process should take around three to five minutes or until mixture begins to thicken.
Next, using a spatula, gently fold into the pudding, four ounces of the whipped cream topping and place the dessert into your fridge for about 10 to 15 minutes so that the pudding reaches the "soft-set" stage.
While waiting for the mixture to set, go ahead and divide up the vanilla wafers evenly and place them into the mason jars, forming the first layer. Then, slice the bananas into bite-sized disks.
After that, start adding two ounces of vanilla pudding on top of the wafers.
Now, top the pudding layer with some banana slices.
Last, add one ounce of whipped topping to the mason jars to form the final layer. You can crush some extra cookies and sprinkle the crumbs on to the whipped topping; however, this step is optional. The dessert can no go back into the fridge to finish setting for an additional 20 or so minutes before serving.
