How to Make This:
Ingredients:
2 cups (480 ml) 2% milkfat cottage cheese
2/3 cup (160 ml) unsweetened almond milk
1 box (.9 oz or 25 g) instant banana cream pudding mix , sugar-free
1 Tbsp (15 ml) Lakanto maple syrup
1 teaspoon (5 ml) pure vanilla extract
2 ripe bananas- divided
1 scoop (30.5 g) protein powder (I used Isopure zero carb vanilla)
30 mini vanilla wafer cookies Whipped cream, sliced banana, and additional cookies for topping
Instructions:
In a blender, food processor or immersion blender, Add all ingredients except 1 banana and the wafer cookies, and blend for 1-2 minutes or until completely smooth and slightly thickened.
In 6 single serving containers ( I used 8 oz containers) fill halfway with the pudding.
In each one, lay 5 vanilla wafer cookies.
Slice the remaining banana evenly between the containers.
Top with remaining pudding.
Chill in the fridge for at least 2 to 4 hours, or even overnight. This gives the Nilla wafers time to absorb the moisture from the pudding and get soft and cake-like.
Before serving, top with whipped cream, sliced bananas, and additional cookies if desired.
Enjoy!
