These banana pudding brownies blend the dense, buttery texture of blondies with the nostalgic flavor of banana pudding, all crowned with crunchy vanilla wafers. A rich, Southern-inspired dessert bar that’s creamy, chewy, and irresistibly easy to love.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 (3.4 oz) package instant banana pudding mix
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1620 vanilla wafer cookies

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until smooth.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
  4. Mix in the dry banana pudding mix until fully incorporated.
  5. Stir in flour and salt just until a thick batter forms.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface evenly.
  7. Top with vanilla wafer cookies, gently pressing them into the batter.
  8. Bake for 28–32 minutes or until edges are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.
  9. Cool completely in the pan. Slice into squares, aiming for one wafer per serving.
  10. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use parchment paper with an overhang for easy removal and clean slicing.
  • Ensure the pudding mix is the instant dry mix, not prepared pudding.
  • Let the brownies cool completely for the best texture and clean cuts.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
