Ingredients
Instant Banana Pudding Mix
2 cups whole milk
1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping
4 medium bananas
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 box (6 oz) vanilla wafers
Instructions
Mix banana pudding mix and cold milk according to package instructions.
Fold in chilled whipped topping until fully incorporated.
Peel and slice bananas, then gently fold into the pudding mixture.
Stir in mini marshmallows until evenly distributed.
Spoon mixture into a serving bowl, layer the vanilla wafers on top, and press lightly to ensure even coverage.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 4 hours) before serving to allow the wafers to soften.
Notes
Use cold milk for optimal pudding texture.
Sugar-free pudding mix and whipped topping are optional for a lighter version.
Chill time can be extended up to 4 hours for deeper flavor absorption.
Add fruit toppings like strawberries or blueberries for a twist.
Storage: Keep refrigerated, covered, for up to 24 hours.
