Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a large bowl, make jello package according to instructions by mixing pudding mix with milk, blending and setting aside
In a medium sized bowl, add dates with boiling hot water, set aside to allow them to become extra soft
In a small bowl, add 1/3 cup of milk and set aside (use for dunking Maria cookies)
Peel and slice approx 3 banans into circular forms and set aside into a bowl
Drain dates from hot water and dice into small pieces, set aside into a bowl
In serving cups or bowls of choice begin by taking approx 5 Maria cookies and dunking them into the bowl of milk, using this as your first dessert layer
Follow by adding 2 tbsp of pudding mix over the cookies and creating a flat surface and sprinkle a handful of dates over the top
Follow by layering your circular sliced banans and repeating the layers one more time for all serving cups/bowls
Using plastic wrap, cover each cup or bowl and place in fridge overnight or for a few hours
Once ready to serve, peel and slice 4 bananas in half and then slide your knive lengthwise down the middle of the banana to create another half
In a medium sized skillet over medium heat, add butter along with date sugar and wait for it to bubble
Once bubbling, add bananas cut side down for approx 2 minutes on each side or until the date sugar has stuck to the banana
Place 2 pieces of banana over each banana pudding, sprinkle with cinnamon if you desire
Dig in and enjoy!
