Prep Time: 40 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes (+ 4 hours 15 minutes standing time)
Makes: 12 servings

Ingredients:

2 cups milk
2 ripe bananas
3 egg yolks
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp cornstarch
3 tbsp salted butter, cubed
2 tsp vanilla extract
20 Dove Peanut Butter Promises, divided
32 vanilla wafer cookies
1/2 cup 35% heavy cream
2 tbsp icing sugar
Cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions:

1. In blender, combine milk, bananas, egg yolks, granulated sugar and cornstarch; blend until smooth.
2. Transfer to saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring, for 8 to 10 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; whisk in butter and vanilla. Cover surface directly with plastic wrap; let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until set.
3. Set aside 12 Dove Peanut Butter Promises; chop remaining ones.
4. Divide half of the wafers and half of the chopped Dove Peanut Butter Promises among 12 ramekins or small glass bowls. Divide half of the pudding among trifles. Repeat layers.
5. Using electric mixer, whip cream and icing sugar until firm peaks form. Divide whipped cream among trifles, smoothing tops; dust with cocoa powder. Garnish each trifle with reserved Dove Peanut Butter Promise. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.

Tip: Substitute chocolate wafers for vanilla wafers, if desired, and add 2 tbsp peanut butter to the pudding for extra-chocolaty peanut butter flavor.
