Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup banana pudding mix
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1 banana, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the brownies bake evenly.
- In a large bowl, melt the butter in the microwave or over low heat on the stove. Stir in the granulated sugar until combined. Let it cool slightly.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until smooth. Stop as soon as you no longer see dry flour.
- Pour the brownie batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- While the brownies cool, prepare the banana pudding. In a separate bowl, whisk the pudding mix with the milk until it thickens, about 2 minutes.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream into the pudding mixture.
- Once the brownies are completely cool, spread the banana pudding mixture evenly over the top.
- Top with sliced bananas.
- Chill the assembled brownies in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.

Keywords: Avoid overbaking the brownies to keep them fudgy. For a richer flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder. You can also add mashed ripe bananas to the brownie batter for a more pronounced banana flavor.
