Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 7 ounces dulce de leche (half of a 14-ounce can)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- 1 box (5.1 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 1/4 cups cold milk
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cups cold heavy cream
- 1 1/2 sleeves Biscoff cookies (about 13.2 ounces total)
- 5 to 6 medium bananas, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter, gently melted
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until completely smooth.
- Add the dulce de leche, sour cream, vanilla bean paste, and kosher salt. Mix until creamy and fully combined.
- Add the instant vanilla pudding mix, then slowly pour in the cold milk while mixing until thick and smooth. Let the mixture rest for 20 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Reserve about 1 1/4 cups for the topping.
- Fold the remaining whipped cream gently into the pudding mixture until light and fluffy.
- Crush part of the Biscoff cookies into chunky pieces and keep some whole or larger pieces for garnish.
- Spread one third of the pudding mixture into a trifle dish or large serving dish.
- Top with half of the crushed Biscoff cookies, half of the sliced bananas, and a drizzle of melted Biscoff cookie butter.
- Add another third of the pudding mixture, then repeat with the remaining crushed cookies, remaining banana slices, and another drizzle of cookie butter.
- Top with the final third of the pudding mixture, cover, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
- Before serving, top with the reserved whipped cream, extra Biscoff cookies, a few banana slices if desired, and a final drizzle of melted cookie butter.
- Serve chilled.
Notes
- Use bananas that are ripe but still firm for the best texture.
- Slice the bananas right before layering to keep them fresh-looking.
- Warm the cookie butter just until pourable, not hot.
- For the best texture, serve within 24 hours of assembling.
