Holiday Chocolate Pudding Pie with Bananas Recipe
Ingredients:
1 large graham cracker pie crust. (You can use a regular dough pie crust if you pre-bake it for 15 minutes in 350 degree F oven until golden.)
2- (4-serving boxes) of cook and serve chocolate pudding. Or 1 large box.
(I use My-T-Fine Pudding Brand) ***DON"T USE INSTANT PUDDING!!!!!
3 and 3/4 cups of 2% milk
2 ripe bananas
whipped cream for serving
Directions:
Pour milk and pudding mix into saucepan and heat on medium burner.
Stir together while the pudding mixture heats up....you have to keep stirring it!! If you stop, the pudding will burn!
Yes, keep stirring the pudding as it heats up. This will take around 15 minutes. Keep stirring though!!! Is your arm tired? Too bad!!!! It's for the family!!! Go, go, go.....
When the pudding is at a rolling boil and thick, remove from heat.
Let pudding sit and cool for 5 minutes...stir it once in that time.
While the pudding is cooling, slice bananas into about 1/4 inch thick rounds.
Lay bananas in bottom of crust and on the sides of the crust.
When the pudding is cooled 5 minutes, pour it over the bananas in the pie crust.
Be sure to cover all the bananas with pudding!
Cover the pie with the plastic lid the graham crust came with.
(If using a regular dough pie crust, after you add the bananas and pudding, lay some plastic wrap directly on the pie.....it should be sticking to the pudding.)
Refrigerate the covered pie for at least 3 hours or overnight.
Serve with a dab of whipped cream! YUM! You will thank me for all that stirring now.
(If you used instant pudding, then just throw the pie out because it stinks. :) Seriously, cook and serve pudding is much tastier than the instant.)
