Now, pour the banana milk slowly into this egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the formation of any lumps. Do not pour all the milk quickly because that will scramble the eggs.

Top them off with whipped cream, crushed vanilla wafers and slices of bananas (I skipped the fresh bananas and whipped cream this time). You can also add some crushed vanilla wafers at the bottom of the cup before pouring pudding on top.
