- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the vanilla extract.
- Carefully fold the whipped cream into the pudding mix until fully incorporated, ensuring a light and airy texture.
- In serving cups, layer the bottom with a few crushed vanilla wafers, followed by a layer of sliced bananas, then a layer of the pudding mixture. Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, finishing with the pudding on top.
