Banana cream pie in a bowl

Banana cream pie is one of my most favorite desserts. My mom even craved it while pregnant with me. However, while I love to eat it, I hate to make it. It’s a process that doesn’t have a pretty ending. Ever.

So when I really wanted banana cream pie today, I took a shortcut.

Mix 1 package of banana pudding according to directions. I used whole milk to make it really thick.

Refrigerate until thick and chilled.

Place pudding in serving bowl. Crumble graham crackers on top. Slice fresh banana to put on top. Sprinkle with cinnamon.

Try not to eat the entire batch. 🙂

In other news, the first knuckle on my fourth finger on my right hand is broken. It’s stuck in a splint for at least three more weeks. The moral of the story is: don’t break up girl fights, especially right before summer break. My art is a little slow right now.
