Ingredients
Scale
- For the Pudding:
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- For the Biscoff Layer:
- 1 1/2 cups Biscoff cookies, crushed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- For the Caramel Sauce:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- For Assembly:
- 3 ripe bananas, sliced
- Whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and salt over medium heat. Cook until the mixture thickens and bubbles, about 8-10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the pudding cool slightly before transferring it to a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
- In a separate bowl, combine the crushed Biscoff cookies and melted butter until well mixed. Press half of this mixture into the bottom of a serving dish.
- Once the pudding has cooled, pour half of it over the Biscoff layer, followed by a layer of banana slices.
- Repeat the layers with the remaining Biscoff mixture, pudding, and banana slices.
- For the caramel sauce, combine sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves and turns a deep amber color, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and carefully stir in heavy cream and butter until smooth.
- Drizzle the caramel sauce over the assembled pudding and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
- Before serving, top with whipped cream and additional crushed Biscoff cookies if desired.
Notes
- This pudding can be made a day in advance, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For a gluten-free option, substitute Biscoff cookies with gluten-free cookies.
