Ingredients
- 2 bananas (sliced)
- 2 cup whole milk (used for the custard)
- 4 tbsp vanilla custard powder (The method specifies using 2 tbsp to make the paste; the ingredient list states 4 tbsp total. Alternatively, use a box of French vanilla pudding.)
- 0.5 cup whole milk (for making the custard-powder paste)
- 5 tbsp granulated sugar (for the custard)
- 1 pack plain biscuits (package size not specified; dip in warm milk before layering)
- 0.333 cup pecans or walnuts (use either pecans or walnuts)
- 0.5 cup heavy whipping cream (unsweetened)
- 3 tbsp powdered sugar (for the whipped cream; listed in the method but not the ingredient list)
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract (added to the whipped cream)
- milk (warm, for dipping the biscuits; quantity not specified)
- cocoa powder (for dusting; quantity not specified)
Steps
- 1
Combine 2 tablespoons of the custard powder with 1/2 cup milk and mix to make a smooth paste.
- 2
Mix the granulated sugar into 2 cups milk in a saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil.
- 3
Add the custard-powder paste to the boiling milk. Cook while stirring until the custard is thick and smooth.
- 4
Set the custard aside and let it cool.
- 5
Prepare a serving dish. Dip the plain biscuits in warm milk and arrange them in the dish, making two layers.
- 6
Add the sliced bananas and pecans or walnuts over the biscuit layers.
- 7
Spoon the cooled custard over the biscuits, bananas, and nuts.
- 8
Place the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Whisk until soft peaks form.
- 9
Spread or layer the whipped cream over the custard.
- 10
Dust the top with cocoa powder.
- 11
Refrigerate for 3–4 hours before serving.
Notes
The ingredient list states 4 tbsp custard powder, while the method specifically says to use 2 tbsp in the paste; the total amount to use is therefore ambiguous. The quantity of milk for dipping the biscuits and the amount of cocoa powder are not specified. The source does not specify the biscuit package size.
