Homemade Chocolate-Banana Pudding image

My family, from East Texas, only made banana pudding with chocolate pudding. I did not taste it made with vanilla pudding until after I got married. I converted my wife!

Provided by rnneal

Time 35m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups whole milk
4 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
1 ½ cups white sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
4 large egg yolks, beaten
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (11 ounce) box vanilla wafer cookies
3 medium bananas, sliced, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine milk and chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted and mixture is hot, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix sugar, flour, and salt together in a bowl. Add some of the hot liquid to the dry ingredients; mix well. Pour dry ingredients into the double boiler and stir well. Cover and cook over a rolling boil, stirring often, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Pour some of the hot mixture into the beaten egg yolks, whisking quickly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Pour the mixture back into the double boiler and whisk to combine. Whisk in butter and vanilla.
  • Line the bottom of a serving bowl with wafer cookies. Pour in some of the pudding to cover and top with sliced bananas. Repeat layers until all of the pudding is gone, ending with bananas on top.
