BANANA PUDDING WITH GRAHAM CRACKERS
I made this recipe when I was craving banana pudding but out of the traditional Nilla® wafers. When I realized the graham crackers would make nice even layers a snap, the idea to make it in an 8x8-inch pan came quickly. It tastes amazing, and the crackers soften quicker than the wafers do. The addition of the Dream Whip® topping mix makes this very creamy and the even layering means you taste all three elements in every bite!

BANANA GRAHAM CRACKER PUDDING
This is my Granny Sell's recipe. She never wrote it down before she passed away, so I've tried to copy it with trial and error. It is such a family favorite that I usually double the recipe when I make it.

Add a small amount of hot mixture to beaten egg yolks, then quickly add back to rest of mixture. Cook and stir for 2 more minutes, then remove from heat and add butter and vanilla.

- I usually make this in the morning, because it tastes wonderful after it has cooled all day in refrigerator and all the flavors marry. I also double this because there is never enough for all of my family.
