Biscoff Banana Pudding (Printable Version)
Luscious no-bake layers of creamy vanilla pudding, ripe bananas, and caramel-spiced Biscoff cookies create this irresistible chilled dessert.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Pudding Base
01 - 2 cups cold whole milk
02 - 1 (5.1 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
03 - 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
04 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream
05 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
→ Fruit & Cookies
06 - 3 large ripe bananas, sliced
07 - 32 Biscoff cookies (about 1 package), plus extra for garnish
→ Topping
08 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream
09 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
10 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
11 - Crushed Biscoff cookies, for garnish
# Directions:
01 - Whisk together cold milk and instant vanilla pudding mix in a large mixing bowl for 2 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes to thicken.
02 - Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until fully incorporated into the pudding mixture.
03 - In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream to soft peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream and vanilla extract into the pudding base until smooth and uniform.
04 - Arrange a single layer of Biscoff cookies in the bottom of a trifle dish or 9x13-inch baking dish.
05 - Top the cookie layer with half of the banana slices, followed by half of the pudding mixture.
06 - Create a second layer with the remaining Biscoff cookies, banana slices, and pudding mixture, ending with pudding on top.
07 - Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and cookies to soften to a cake-like texture.
08 - Before serving, whip the remaining 1 cup heavy cream with powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
09 - Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the chilled pudding surface. Garnish generously with crushed Biscoff cookies and additional banana slices if desired. Serve cold.
# Top Tips:
01 -
- The Biscoff cookies soften into cake-like layers while keeping their signature caramel spice
- It comes together in 20 minutes but tastes like you spent hours planning something special
02 -
- If you're making this ahead, wait to add the banana garnish until right before serving or it'll turn brown and sad
- The cookies will continue softening in the fridge, so after 24 hours the texture gets more like bread pudding
03 -
- Slice your bananas right before assembling so they don't have time to oxidize and turn brown
- For the prettiest layers, save your most perfect banana slices for the top
