Banana pudding, in my opinion, is the ideal dessert. The combination of creamy pudding, soft Nilla Wafers, and fluffy whipped cream creates an unbeatable combination of textures and flavors. It’s a well-loved Southern dessert with legions of devoted followers (including myself) — and for good reason!
