Ingredients
For the Pudding Layers:
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup Biscoff cookie butter, melted
For the Layers:
- 2–3 bananas, sliced
- 1 package (8.8 ounces) Biscoff cookies
- 1 cup caramel sauce
For Topping:
- Whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)
- Crushed Biscoff cookies
- Drizzle of caramel sauce
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pudding
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk and instant pudding mix until smooth and thickened. Set aside.
Step 2: Make Whipped Cream
In a separate bowl, beat heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the prepared pudding to make it extra creamy. Reserve the remaining whipped cream for topping.
Step 3: Melt the Cookie Butter
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the Biscoff cookie butter for 15–20 seconds or until it reaches a pourable consistency. Gently fold the melted cookie butter into the pudding mixture for a rich and spiced flavor.
Step 4: Layer the Dessert
In a trifle dish, individual glasses, or a 9×13-inch dish, assemble the layers:
- Spread a thin layer of caramel sauce on the bottom.
- Add a layer of whole or crushed Biscoff cookies.
- Arrange a layer of banana slices over the cookies.
- Spoon a generous layer of the Biscoff pudding mixture over the bananas.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of pudding on top.
Step 5: Add the Toppings
Spread or pipe the reserved whipped cream over the top layer of pudding. Garnish with crushed Biscoff cookies and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
Step 6: Chill and Serve
Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled, and enjoy the creamy, caramelized goodness!
Tips for Success
- Use ripe, but firm bananas to avoid mushiness.
- For extra flavor, toast the Biscoff cookies lightly before using.
- If you prefer homemade caramel, make a batch in advance and let it cool before assembling the dessert.
Serving Suggestions
This dessert is perfect for parties, potlucks, or holidays. Serve it with coffee or tea to balance the sweetness.
Enjoy this indulgent, layered treat that’s sure to impress with its creamy, spiced, and caramel-rich flavors!
