Banana Vanilla Pudding & Tropical Fruit Trifle: A Sweet and Refreshing Dessert Delight

• In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, sugar, egg yolks, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Cook the mixture over medium heat, constantly whisking to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
• As the mixture heats up, it will begin to thicken. Keep whisking until it becomes smooth and pudding-like, around 5-7 minutes. Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and butter, if using.
• Let the pudding cool slightly at room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until fully cooled.

2. Prepare the Whipped Cream:

• In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as the cream could turn into butter.
• Once whipped, set aside in the fridge.

3. Prepare the Fruits:

• Slice the bananas and arrange them in a bowl, keeping them aside until you’re ready to assemble the trifle.
• Peel and chop the mango into small cubes, and chop the pineapple into bite-sized pieces.
• If using passion fruit, scoop out the pulp and set it aside.

4. Assemble the Trifle:

• In a large glass trifle bowl or individual serving glasses, start by layering the ingredients. Begin with a layer of ladyfingers or sponge cake at the bottom. If using ladyfingers, drizzle them lightly with orange juice or pineapple juice to moisten them.
• Next, spread a layer of vanilla pudding over the ladyfingers.
• Add a layer of banana slices, followed by a layer of tropical fruits (mango, pineapple, and passion fruit).
• Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used up, finishing with a generous layer of whipped cream on top.
• For a final touch, you can garnish the trifle with extra fresh fruit, like mango cubes, pineapple, or even a few mint leaves for a pop of color.

5. Chill and Serve:

• Cover the trifle with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
• The trifle can be made a day ahead, which allows the layers to set beautifully.

6. Serve and Enjoy:
