Ingredients

  • 1 cup vanilla wafers, crushed
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 box (3.4 oz) instant banana pudding mix
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 1 cup whipped cream
  • ½ cup vanilla vodka (optional for adults)
  • ¼ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, prepare the instant banana pudding mix by whisking it with milk according to the package instructions. Let it set for a few minutes.
  • In another bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  • If you're making adult-friendly shots, gently stir the vanilla vodka into the banana mixture.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the banana pudding mixture until fully incorporated.
  • To assemble the shots, start by placing a layer of crushed vanilla wafers at the bottom of each shot glass.
  • Add a layer of the banana pudding mixture on top of the crushed wafers.
  • Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with a layer of pudding on top.
  • Add an extra touch of flair by garnishing with more crushed vanilla wafers or slices of banana, if desired.
  • Allow the shots to cool and set in the refrigerator for a minimum of one hour before you're ready to serve them.
