- 396 g condensed milk (14 oz)
- 1 ½ cups ice cold water
- 96 g vanilla pudding mix (3.4 oz box)
- 3 cups whipping cream (35%)
- 4 cups sliced bananas
- 680 g vanilla wafers (2 boxes, 12 oz each)
Instructions
- Whisk condensed milk and cold water until smooth.
- Add pudding mix and whisk 2 minutes; refrigerate at least 4 hours.
- Whip cream to stiff peaks.
- Fold whipped cream into chilled pudding mixture until light and smooth.
- Layer wafers, bananas, and pudding mixture in a large dish, repeating layers.
- Finish with pudding layer on top and refrigerate 4–6 hours or overnight.
