Every Southerner knows that Banana Pudding is a staple in your home on Sunday's. There are several recipes out there from cooking the filling to using instant pudding and cool whip for filling. This is a little different style, but still uses the instant pudding and cool whip type recipe. The coconut and pecans add a different flavor and crunch to a much loved southern recipe.

How To Make banana pudding torte

Step 1

CRUMBS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In food processor, process wafers into fine crumbs; then add coconut and pecans. Pour the melted butter over the wafer crumbs mixture and toss until well blended. Spread crumb mixture onto cookie sheet and bake for 7 to 12 minutes, tossing mixture lightly a few times. Cool completely before filling.

Step 2

PUDDING: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding and milk with a whisk until well blended. Fold in the whipped topping. Place pudding mixture into a ziploc bag and snip a small tip from the corner to pipe into glass dishes.
Step 3

ASSEMBLY: In your serving glasses, layer crumb mixture, pudding, chopped topping mixture, toffee bits, and chopped banana. Serve immediately.
