Try my Best Banana Pudding Recipe! It's quick and easy, and did I mention, no-cook!
You’re going to have to trust me until you try it, but this is the best banana pudding recipe! The combination of sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, Nilla wafers and a couple of special ingredients make this, hands-down, my all-time favorite banana pudding recipe.
A while back I posted my mom's famous Banana Pudding Recipe. Well, I decided to tinker with it and came up with an out-of-this-world banana pudding recipe. Usually, I don't mess around with something that's already outstanding, but I did and I can't wait for you to try it!
If you take this Banana Pudding to your church fellowship, potluck or friend's house, they'll be begging you for the recipe – it's THAT good!
Why banana liqueur in banana pudding?
Banana liquer is the special ingredient in this recipe that adds a boost of flavor that everyone will love. Don't worry, noone will get tipsy on this small amount. It's just like adding vanilla extract. If you're opposed to using banana liquer you can use a banana flavored syrup like Davinci Banana Syrup.

Banana pudding my all time fave. Thanks for sharing a new recipe I would love to try making this.
Lynn says
I am concerned using banana liquor for there will be children possibly eating this. Where would I find banana liquor? If using banana extract does it overwhelm the taste like some extracts do? Thank you for such amazing recipes. Trying several!!
Jennifer says
The amount of banana liquor is minimal, just like an extract. Most pure extracts are made with alcohol. If you’re concerned, you can just omit it.
