Ingredients

For the Pudding Layer:

  • 2 boxes (3.4 oz / 96 g each) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 1 can (14 oz / 397 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1½ cups heavy cream or 3 cups whipped topping (like Cool Whip), divided
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Layers:

  • 1½–2 packages Biscoff cookies (about 40–50 cookies), plus extra for garnish
  • 4–5 ripe but firm bananas, sliced

Optional Garnish:

  • Crushed Biscoff cookies
  • Banana slices (added just before serving)
  • A dusting of cinnamon

Instructions

Make the Pudding Base
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk for 2–3 minutes, until it starts to thicken.
Whisk in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until smooth.

Whip the Cream
If using heavy cream: In a separate bowl, whip the cream to soft-medium peaks.
Gently fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream (or an equal amount of whipped topping) into the pudding mixture until combined and fluffy. Reserve the remaining whipped cream for the top layer.

Prep the Bananas & Cookies
Peel and slice bananas into rounds.
Have your Biscoff cookies ready, keeping some aside for crushing and garnish.

Layer the Dessert
In a 9×13-inch dish or a large trifle bowl, create layers:

  1. Bottom Layer: Spread a thin layer of pudding mixture to lightly coat the bottom.
  2. Cookie Layer: Arrange a single layer of Biscoff cookies over the pudding.
  3. Banana Layer: Add a layer of banana slices on top of the cookies.
  4. Pudding Layer: Spread a generous layer of the pudding mixture over the bananas.

Repeat the cookie–banana–pudding layers until you’ve used most of the pudding, ending with pudding on top. (You can usually get 2–3 layers depending on your dish.)

Top with Whipped Cream
Spread the remaining whipped cream or whipped topping over the final pudding layer in an even layer.

Garnish & Chill
Crush a few Biscoff cookies and sprinkle over the top. You can also gently press a few whole cookies upright along the edges for decoration.
Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the cookies to soften and the flavors to meld.

Serve
Spoon into bowls, making sure each serving gets cookies, bananas, and cream.
If desired, top each serving with extra crushed Biscoff and a fresh banana slice right before serving.

Tips for Success

Use Ripe but Firm Bananas – Overly soft bananas can turn mushy as the dessert chills.
Chill Long Enough – At least 4 hours (or overnight) helps the cookies soften and the flavors blend.
Layer Gently – Spread pudding carefully so the layers stay distinct but still cozy together.
Add Fresh Banana Garnish Late – For the top, add any fresh banana slices just before serving so they don’t brown.

Why This Recipe Works

The combination of instant pudding, sweetened condensed milk, and whipped cream creates a smooth, rich base that sets softly without being dense. Biscoff cookies absorb moisture from the pudding, softening into cake-like layers while keeping their caramelized spice flavor. Bananas add natural sweetness and fruitiness that pairs perfectly with both the vanilla and the Biscoff.

Layering everything and letting it chill turns a handful of simple ingredients into an impressive, spoonable dessert with multiple textures—creamy, soft, and lightly crunchy. This Biscoff Banana Pudding is a no-bake dessert that feels both nostalgic and modern, ideal for any time you want a crowd-pleasing treat with very little effort.

Directions

  • Make the Pudding
    In a large bowl, whisk pudding mix and cold milk for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened. Whisk in sweetened condensed milk and vanilla until smooth.
  • Fold in Whipped Cream
    Whip the heavy cream to soft-medium peaks (if not using prepared whipped topping). Fold about 1 cup of whipped cream into the pudding mixture until light and creamy. Reserve the rest for topping.
  • Fold in Whipped Cream
    Whip the heavy cream to soft-medium peaks (if not using prepared whipped topping). Fold about 1 cup of whipped cream into the pudding mixture until light and creamy. Reserve the rest for topping.
  • Start Layering
    Spread a thin layer of pudding mixture on the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish or trifle bowl. Add a layer of Biscoff cookies, then a layer of banana slices. Spread a generous layer of pudding over the bananas.
  • Repeat Layers
    Continue layering cookies, bananas, and pudding until you’ve used most of the pudding, finishing with a pudding layer on top.
  • Top with Whipped Cream
    Spread the remaining whipped cream (or whipped topping) over the top in an even layer.
  • Garnish & Chill
    Sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies over the top. Decorate with a few whole cookies if desired. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Serve
    Scoop into bowls, making sure each serving includes pudding, cookies, and bananas. Add fresh banana slices and extra crushed Biscoff just before serving, if desired.

Notes

  • To prevent bananas from browning, you can lightly toss slices with a bit of lemon juice, but use sparingly so it doesn’t affect flavor too much.
    For a lighter version, you can use low-fat milk and light whipped topping.
    Best served within 1–2 days; after that, the bananas may soften more and darken.
    Works beautifully in a trifle dish for a show-stopping presentation.
