Steps
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix, sweetened condensed milk, and cold water until fully combined and smooth, with no visible dry pudding mix.
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate the pudding mixture for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until thoroughly chilled and set.
When ready to assemble, pour the heavy whipping cream into a chilled mixing bowl. Whip until stiff peaks form; the cream should hold its shape when the whisk is lifted.
Add the whipped cream to the chilled pudding mixture. Fold gently with a spatula until the mixture is smooth, evenly combined, and fluffy. Avoid stirring aggressively so the whipped cream does not lose too much volume.
Sift the matcha powder over the pudding mixture. Fold it in gently until the color is uniform and no dry matcha remains.
Slice the bananas into even rounds and prepare the vanilla wafers for layering.
In a trifle dish, add a layer of the matcha pudding. Spread it into an even layer.
Add a layer of sliced bananas over the pudding, followed by a layer of vanilla wafers. Continue alternating layers of matcha pudding, bananas, and vanilla wafers until the ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of pudding.
Dust the top of the final pudding layer with additional matcha powder.
Cover the assembled pudding and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until ready to serve. The chilling time allows the wafers to soften and the layers to set.
Notes
The pudding can be chilled overnight after the initial mixing. For the best texture, assemble and refrigerate the finished dessert for at least 4 hours before serving.
