Food Friday-Nutter Butter Banana Pudding

Hi everyone! I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful. We had Thanksgiving dinner at my in-laws and it was covered dish. I brought Nutter-Butter Banana Trifle and it turned out so well, it is the Food Friday selection for this week.

The recipe is adapted from the Feb. 2009 issue of Southern Living. However, I didn't have the time or courage to make the pudding from scratch so I used my Easy 5 Ingredient Banana Pudding Recipe instead. Here goes:

2 cups milk
1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding
1 8 oz. tub of Cool Whip
1 pkg. of Nutter Butters
3 bananas, sliced

Mix milk and pudding together with a whisk for 2 minutes. Let stand 3 minutes, fold in 1 1/2 cups of Cool Whip.
Separate Nutter Butter cookies and place on bottom of trifle bowl. Top with 1 sliced banana, then the pudding mixture. You can place the cookies around the sides of the bowl too for an elegant look. Repeat layers, ending with pudding. Cover with remaining Cool Whip and top with cookies laid flat. Cover and refrigerate.
