Some desserts don’t need fancy layers or trendy twists.
They just need ripe bananas, creamy vanilla pudding, soft cookies, and a whole lot of love.
This Old-Fashioned Southern Banana Pudding is the kind that shows up at Sunday dinner, church potlucks, and family reunions — and disappears fast. One spoonful tastes like sweet memories. 
INGREDIENTS
1 box (5 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cups cold whole milk
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 container (8 oz) whipped topping (or homemade whipped cream)
4–5 ripe bananas (sliced)
1 box vanilla wafers (Nilla-style cookies)
