Homemade Banana Pudding Trifle Recipe

When I was off at college, I would make a banana cream pie at least once a month. It has to be the world’s easiest dessert, and was certainly the only one I knew how to make besides cookie dough, so it became my favorite. Way back then, though, I just used a box mix of pudding. It doesn’t even compare with homemade banana pudding!

Take the recipe a step further and fold in homemade whip cream, crumble vanilla wafers, and make it a banana cream pie trifle desert! Now I have a real desert worth showing off. Read on for the recipe!
