Ingredients

Scale

For the Pudding:

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Pinch of salt

For the Layers:

  • 1 box Biscoff cookies (about 24 cookies)
  • 4 ripe bananas, sliced
  • Whipped cream (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pudding Base: In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar over medium heat. Whisk occasionally until the mixture is hot but not boiling, creating the foundation for the pudding.
  2. Temper the Eggs: In a separate bowl, vigorously whisk the egg yolks. Slowly add about half of the hot milk mixture into the yolks while whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from scrambling and to gently raise their temperature.
  3. Cook the Pudding: Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture. Add the cornstarch and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the pudding thickens and begins to bubble. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract for flavor.
  4. Cool the Pudding: Allow the pudding to cool slightly at room temperature. This prevents the cookies from melting during assembly and helps the pudding set properly.
  5. Layer the Ingredients: In a 9×9-inch or similarly sized dish, place a single layer of Biscoff cookies to form the base. Add a layer of sliced bananas evenly over the cookies, then pour a generous amount of pudding over the bananas to cover them completely.
  6. Repeat Layers: Continue layering Biscoff cookies, sliced bananas, and pudding until all ingredients are used up, finishing with a top layer of pudding for a smooth finish.
  7. Chill the Dessert: Cover the assembled pudding and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to fully set.
  8. Serve and Garnish: Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and garnish with crushed Biscoff cookies or banana slices to add texture and enhance presentation. Slice and serve chilled for a refreshing and indulgent dessert experience.

Notes

  • Ensure the pudding is completely cooled before assembly to avoid softening the cookies prematurely.
  • For extra crunch, reserve a few Biscoff cookies and crush them on top just before serving.
  • Using full-fat milk and cream enhances the richness and creaminess of the pudding.
  • Speculoos or ginger cookies can be used as alternatives for a different but complementary flavor.
  • Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
  • This pudding can be frozen for up to 2 weeks for a chilled frozen dessert variation.
