This Banana Pudding consisted of whipped cream, bananas, Nilla crackers, and sweet stuff. The recipe was super easy to make, and it was a no-bake recipe. All I had to do was prep the pudding the night before, whip the heavy cream, then create the layers. I got these mini containers from Daiso and made mini banana pudding jars.
I remember that on this day, my eardrum actually burst due to too much pressure building up in my right ear from my back-to-back flight from Europe. It really hurt, but the banana pudding somewhat saved the day. I gave out a mini jar to my friends: Eman, Erick, and Shawn (my bf), they all seemed to like it!
What caused me to make this was my brother Patrick. The other night he brought a tub home, and it was really good, so I asked for the recipe to make it myself. The recipe was simple but I was scared at first because I never used a hand mixer before. I HAD to use it in order to whip the cream, and it wasn't so bad. I tried whipping it with a whisk but you have to whip consistently and fast, so I used the mixer instead.
This was my first time making a dessert on my own. I believe the first dessert I ever made was cake pops with my aunt and cousins super long ago. My second was making a regular cheesecake with my friends. It's been about 6 years since I baked or made anything. This day is the beginning of my baking journey. It wouldn't have started without the jar that my brother brought home.
I forgot to take a picture since I don't usually so here is the stock photo from the recipe website.
