Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 23 ripe bananas (with brown spots for maximum sweetness)
  • 1 package instant chocolate pudding mix (about 3.9 oz)
  • 2 cups milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 cup heavy whipped cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Sweetener

  • 12 tablespoons honey or powdered sugar (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pudding: Mix the instant chocolate pudding mix with cold milk and whisk vigorously for 2 minutes until thickened and set. This creates the rich chocolate base.
  2. Whip the Cream: In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand or stand mixer until soft peaks form, giving the dessert a light and fluffy texture.
  3. Mash the Bananas: Peel and mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth but still slightly chunky to retain some texture.
  4. Combine All Ingredients: Gently fold the mashed bananas into the prepared chocolate pudding, then carefully fold in the whipped cream using a spatula until just blended, preserving fluffiness.
  5. Add Vanilla and Sweeten: Stir in vanilla extract and, if desired, add honey or powdered sugar to balance flavors and achieve the ideal sweetness.
  6. Chill and Serve: Transfer the fluff to serving bowls or a large dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set and chill for enhanced flavor and texture before serving.

Notes

  • Use riper bananas with brown spots for natural sweetness and the best flavor.
  • Chill your mixing tools to help the cream whip faster and better.
  • Fold ingredients gently to maintain a light, airy fluff texture.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness before serving if needed.
  • Try layering with crushed cookies or fresh fruit for an impressive presentation.
