- In a large bowl, beat the cold milk with vanilla extract and vanilla pudding packets until it thickens. Pour in the condensed milk and beat to combine.
- In a separate bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Add about two-thirds of the whipped cream into the pudding and gently fold it in with a spatula.
- Add the powdered sugar into the remaining one-third whipped cream and fold with a spatula to combine. Refrigerate until needed.
- In the bottom of your trifle bowl, place 1/4 vanilla wafers and 1/4 bananas.
- Spread 1/4 of the pudding over the bananas/wafers. Repeat with the remaining layers until you have four layers.
- Add the reserved whipped cream over the top of the pudding and decorate as desired. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours before serving.

Note
- Make Ahead—assemble up to 24 hours in advance. Cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy the dessert within two days of making it.
- Be sure to use INSTANT pudding mix.
- For a less sweet banana pudding, use half of the sweetened condensed milk or add it to taste. Keep in mind that adding the whipped cream also mellows out the sweetness.
- For single-serving desserts, assemble them in small cups or bowls using a piping bag to layer.
