Creamy, Decadent Banana Pudding

This is one of my favorite banana puddings to take to potlucks because it tends to please everyone from the kids to the adults, true southerners to Yorkers alike! This is the recipe my grandmother uses a lot for family get-togethers. It's quick, easy and just heavenly!  The addition of the sour cream really adds a special touch and ties all the flavors in perfectly so that it's not overly sweet or too rich like some banana puddings can be. Don't let the instant pudding throw you off if you're use to making your own pudding. This recipe taste so much better with instant pudding than with homemade pudding in my opinion. I made this dessert for a holiday party and a pilot was there and his exact words were "I've had banana pudding from all over the world but this stuff is first class!" I never seemed to forget that.  What a compliment!

Watch me make this dessert!
