How Do I Make Banana Pudding?

9. Tropical Banana Pudding

• 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
• 3/4 cup instant vanilla pudding mix
• 14-ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 3 cups heavy cream
• 12-ounces vanilla wafers
• 3 large bananas - sliced
• 1 cup crushed pineapple
• 1 cup toasted coconut flakes

Combine the coconut milk, pudding mix, and condensed milk in a large bowl. Cover the bowl and refrigerate it for 2 hours. Beat the heavy cream in a bowl until it stiffens and fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture. Lay a third of the vanilla wafers across the bottom of a trifle bowl. Layer a third of the bananas, pudding, and crushed pineapple over the wafers and sprinkle with coconut flakes. Repeat the process twice more with a third of the ingredients in each layer. Refrigerate the dessert overnight, then serve with crushed vanilla wafers and toasted coconut garnish.
