For the Pudding Base

  • 2 cups Cold Milk Use whole or 2% milk for a creamier texture.
  • 1 cup Whipped Topping Can substitute with homemade whipped cream for a fresher taste.
For the Fruit Layer
  • 3 medium Ripe Bananas Choose bananas with some brown spots for optimum sweetness.

For the Crunch Topping
