Pro Tips for the Perfect, No-Bake Blow Your Mind Banana Pudding
- Chill for Structure: For firmer layers and clean slices, refrigerate your Blow Your Mind Banana Pudding for at least 4 hours before serving.
- Banana Ripeness Matters: Choose ripe, spotty bananas for sweetness; however, avoid mushy fruit to keep layers neat.
- Protect the Bananas: Lightly toss slices with a squeeze of lemon to slow browning, yet keep flavors balanced.
- Cushion the Crunch: Layer wafers just before the pudding to maintain a pleasant bite while they soften slightly.
- Whip It Right: Beat cream to stiff peaks so the finished pudding stays airy yet sliceable.
