Nilla Wafer BANANA PUDDING
ORIGINAL NILLA WAFER From Joan's Kitchen 3/4 Cups Sugar, Divided 1/3 Cup Flour Dash of Salt 3 Eggs, Separated 2 Cups Milk 1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla 45 Nilla Wafers, Divided 5 Ripe Bananas, Sliced (about 3- 1/2 Cups), Divided MIX 1/2 cup sugar, flour and salt in top of double boiler. Blend in 3 egg yolks and milk. Cook, uncovered, over boiling water, stirring constantly for 10 to 12 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. RESERVE 10 wafers for garnish. Spread small amount of custard on bottom of 1-1/2 quart casserole; cover with layer of wafers and layer of sliced bananas. Pour about 1/3 of custard over bananas. Continue to layer wafers, bananas and custard to make a total of 3 layers of each, ending with custard. NOTE: I only make two layers of wafers and use about 24 to stand around top edge of pudding before spreading on beaten egg whites. Leaving tops of Vanilla Wafers to show above meringue. BEAT egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup sugar, beating until stiff but not dry. Spoon on top of custard, spreading to cover entire surface and sealing well to edges. BAKE at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly or refrigerate several hours until chilled. Top with reserved wafers. Makes 8 servings. Enjoy When we are grateful for the good we already have, we attract more good into our life. On the other hand, when we are ungrateful, we tend to shut ourselves off from the good we might otherwise experience. ~Sylvia --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
