This was the best banana pudding I have had in a loooooong time. I think it is almost as good as what my grandmother made when I was a child. This is way better than using a pudding mix in my opinion. I think I will just make the pudding recipe and use it for traditional banana pudding with vanilla wafers as well. It would also be really good with fresh strawberries.

Don't do what I did!!! I totally screwed it up. Hubby didn't like the looks of the sliced bananas (he hates them), so I mashed them up and added them to the cream after it cooled. HUGE mistake! The goopy mass never gelled, and I ended up pouring it all down the garbage disposal. DOH. The cream -- before I added the mashed bananas -- was delicious, however, so I might try this recipe again, but without the bananas (or I'll have to eat the whole pie myself). Oy. Hmmm... wonder if I could add melted chocolate to the cream . . . uh-oh, somebody STOP me!

Good recipe. I used the leftover egg whites to make a meringue on top.
