Ingredients

2 cups cold whole milk
1 (3.4-ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (8.8-ounce) package Biscoff cookies (about 32 cookies)
3 large ripe bananas, sliced
1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Biscoff cookie crumbs, for garnish (optional)
Extra whipped cream, for topping (optional)

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Whipped Cream

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form (about 2-3 minutes). Set aside.

Step 2: Make the Pudding Base

In another large bowl, whisk together the cold milk and instant vanilla pudding mix for 2 minutes until thickened. Let sit for 2 more minutes to fully thicken.

Step 3: Combine Cream Cheese and Condensed Milk

In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the sweetened condensed milk and mix until well combined and creamy.

Step 4: Mix Everything Together

Fold the cream cheese mixture into the pudding until smooth. Gently fold in half of the whipped cream until fully incorporated. Reserve the remaining whipped cream for topping.

Step 5: Assemble the Dessert

In a 9x13-inch dish or trifle bowl, arrange a single layer of Biscoff cookies on the bottom.
Top with half of the sliced bananas.
Spoon half of the pudding mixture over the bananas and gently spread into an even layer.
Drizzle ½ cup of caramel sauce over the pudding.
Repeat the layers: cookies, bananas, pudding mixture.
Finish with the reserved whipped cream and remaining caramel sauce drizzled on top.

Step 6: Chill and Serve

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to soften.
Garnish with extra Biscoff cookie crumbs and whipped cream, if desired. Scoop and enjoy!

Notes

For the smoothest cream cheese mixture, make sure your cream cheese is fully softened before mixing.
Don’t slice bananas too far in advance—they may brown; assemble just before layering.
You can use homemade caramel sauce for an extra special touch.

Variations

Chocolate Drizzle: Add a layer of chocolate ganache with the caramel for a decadent twist.
Nutty Crunch: Sprinkle chopped toasted pecans or walnuts between the layers.
Dairy-Free: Use non-dairy milk, coconut whipped cream, and dairy-free pudding mix.

Required Equipment

9x13-inch baking dish or large trifle bowl
Hand mixer or stand mixer
Mixing bowls (large and medium)
Whisk and spatula
Measuring cups and spoons

Storage Instructions

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The pudding is best eaten within 24-48 hours for optimal texture; after that, the bananas may begin to brown and the cookies soften further.

Suggested Pairings and Serving Recommendations

Serve chilled on its own as a show-stopping dessert centerpiece.
Pair it with strong coffee, espresso, or a glass of cold milk for balance.
Top individual servings with a dusting of cinnamon, extra cookie crumbs, or fresh berries for color.

Pro Tips

Chill your mixing bowl and beater for the whipped cream—it helps it whip up faster and fluffier.
Let the assembled pudding chill overnight for the most flavorful, creamy result.
Use slightly underripe bananas if you prefer a firmer texture after chilling.

FAQ

Can I make Biscoff Banana Pudding with Caramel ahead of time?: Absolutely! In fact, preparing it a day ahead helps the flavors meld and makes the cookies perfectly soft and flavorful.
Can I use regular graham crackers instead of Biscoff cookies?: You can, but Biscoff cookies offer a unique spiced flavor that's hard to beat. Substitute if needed.
How can I prevent the bananas from browning?: Layer the bananas right before assembling, and ensure they're fully covered with pudding to slow any browning.
