NILLA WAFER BANANA PUDDING

Steps:

• To make the custard, simmer one to two inches of water in a pot over low heat. Place a glass or metal bowl on top of the pot, making sure it doesn't touch the water.
• Add 1/2 cup of sugar, flour, and salt to the bowl.
• Beat in the egg yolks and milk, and stir until the mixture is well-combined.
• Cook the mixture over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the milk from burning.
• Remove the bowl from the heat and mix in the vanilla.
• Spread a small amount of the custard at the bottom of a 1 1/2-quart casserole.
• Layer Nilla Wafers on top of the custard. Top with a layer of sliced bananas.
• Pour a third of the custard over the bananas. Continue layering until you get three layers of each component, ending with the custard. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
• To make the meringue topping, beat the egg whites with a mixer until foamy. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and beat for 4-5 minutes or until stiff peaks form. You'll know the egg whites are done when they're glossy and they form a firm peak that holds its shape when you lift the beater.
• Spoon over the meringue over the pudding, making sure the entire surface is covered well.
• Bake the pudding for 5 minutes or until the meringue has turned light golden brown.
• Let the pudding cool to room temperature. Chill in the fridge before serving.
• Garnish with banana slices and place Nilla Wafers around the edge of the dish.

VANILLA WAFERS

Steps:

• Position 1 oven rack in the top third of the oven and another in the bottom third. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl and set aside. Cream the butter and vanilla sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl after 1 minute. Add the egg and incorporate on medium speed for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the mixer bowl. Add the vanilla extract and milk and blend on low speed for 15 seconds. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed just to incorporate. Chill the batter in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before scooping.
• Scoop the batter in teaspoon-sized balls and arrange them on 2 parchment paper-lined half sheet pans, approximately 35 cookies per pan. Use the heel of your hand to slightly flatten each ball. Bake, 2 pans at a time, rotating the pans halfway through the baking, until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pans to a cooling rack to cool completely before removing the cookies from the pan.
