Pudding deserts made easy

This has, by far, got to be the easiest recipe for banana cream pie. I must have seen it somewhere but I couldn’t tell you where. If you are in a hurry for a BBQ or party and need an easy pie in a hurry this one’s a winner.

Banana Pie and Split

 

  • 1 frozen 9” pie shell
  • 1 lg box instant vanilla Jell-O pudding
  • 2 bananas peeled and cut into slices
  • Whip Cream
  • Shredded coconut

Make pie shell and pudding according to directions. Mix bananas in with pudding and fill pie shell with mix. Chill for ½ hour in the fridge. When serving top with whip cream and coconut.

Can be made with chocolate pudding and crumbled Oreo cookies also.

Chocolate Mousse

  • 1 small box instant milk chocolate Jello-O pudding
  • 1 container of cool whip
  • Whip cream in a can
  • Maraschino cherries with the stems

Make pudding according to directions. Mix with as 3 heaping tbsp whip cream. Chill 3 large mouth wine glasses in the freezer while chilling the mousse. Fill the glasses with mousse mix and top with whip cream and a cherry.

For an even more dazzling effect in the glass put 1 layer of mousse, one layer of whip cream, 1 layer of mousse and top with whip cream. When you make the layers slant them slightly to make them look like a candy cane effect.

You can dress these up a million ways, get creative and have fun with it!
