Total Time: 1 hour and 20 minutes
Ingredients
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup cold water
1 (3.4-ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
1 pint heavy whipping cream
60 vanilla wafers
2 bananas, thinly sliced into rounds
3 maraschino cherries, for garnish
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, stir together the condensed milk and water until well-combined. Add the pudding mix and whisk until smooth. Place in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
In the meantime, using an electric beater, whip the whipping cream until stiff. Fold in the pudding mixture.
