Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Whipped Cream

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
    • Shortcut: Use store-bought whipped topping if you’re short on time.

Step 2: Layer the Dessert

  1. Dip each cookie briefly in milk to soften them slightly, then layer them on the bottom of a glass dish or serving cups.
  2. Spread a layer of whipped cream over the cookies.
  3. Add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the cream.
  4. Repeat the layers (cookies, cream, bananas) until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of whipped cream.

Step 3: Garnish

  1. Sprinkle chocolate shavings, drizzle caramel, or add crushed nuts on top for extra flavor and decoration.
  2. For an elegant touch, add a banana slice and a whole cookie on top of each serving.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

  1. Cover the dessert and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to soften.
  2. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Tips for Perfect Banana and Cookie Dessert

  1. Use Ripe Bananas: Choose bananas that are ripe but firm for the best flavor and texture.
  2. Experiment with Cookies: Try different cookie types like Oreos, chocolate chip cookies, or shortbread for unique flavors.
  3. Add Layers: Include a layer of chocolate pudding or Nutella for added richness.
  4. Make It Ahead: This dessert tastes even better the next day, as the cookies soften and absorb the cream.
