0:00
- I wanna tell y'all the truth.
0:03
This recipe, I don't care if I'm in the west, the east,
0:06
the north or the south of our country,
0:11
somebody is gonna come up to me and say,
0:14
"Not Yo Banana Pudding was the biggest hit.
0:19
And I have to make it for every occasion."
0:21
And I'll tell you where I got the recipe.
0:23
I'd love to say I was the brilliant one
0:25
that came up with it, but I was not.
0:29
I met a lady named Rachel that lives in Florida.
0:33
I met her through my cousin, Don,
0:38
right there, Don Hiers.
0:40
He and Darlene just rolled in
0:43
and I think they've been everywhere,
0:46
but so they're gonna be here with us visiting
0:50
and I can't believe that I'm making Rachel's,
0:52
not your mama's, 'cause that's my connection
0:58
And I have to say, this is
1:00
by far the best non-cooked banana pudding you will ever
1:06
And it makes a whole bunch y'all.
1:08
So I'm only doing half.
1:13
because none of us in this house needs a whole recipe
1:17
of Not Yo Mama's. (laughs)
1:20
So we gonna get started.
1:23
And like I said, it's the best non-cooked I've ever had.
1:27
All right, so in this bowl, I'm gonna put my milk,
1:33
and you can get the full recipe on our website.
1:38
It'll be there for you because this is a perfect dessert
1:41
for Thanksgiving because it makes so much.
1:46
So if you making up your Thanksgiving menus,
1:51
make sure you add this one to it because you will be a hit.
1:57
All right, so I'm using a three ounce package
2:03
All right, so that's our milk and our pudding mix.
2:08
And we're gonna let that sit.
2:11
And then I'm gonna bring in another bowl
2:13
and I'm gonna mix my cream cheese.
2:16
And because we're halving it,
2:17
I'm going only use a half a can of sweetened condensed milk.
2:24
That looks like about half.
2:28
Then we're gonna mix this up good.
2:32
And you'll wanna mix this separate
2:34
because you want your cream cheese,
2:38
you know, to be nice and smooth.
2:42
(tools thudding) (dishes clinking)
2:44
Perfect, now we're gonna mix these two things together.
2:55
- [Don] Whoops, what. (spatula tapping)
2:56
- [Paula] Uh-huh, I mean, you can't go wrong
3:01
- [Paula] With condensed milk and-
3:04
- [Paula] Yes and cream cheese can't go wrong.
3:10
- All right, so we're gonna mix those together.
3:12
And now I'm gonna need our whipping cream.
3:15
Now the original recipe, y'all, call for
3:20
that frozen Whip topping.
3:24
And it's good in a pinch, but,
3:29
I always use the fresh, I like to whip my own cream.
3:33
The recipe calls for an eight ounce package,
3:35
but I'm going to only use like four ounces,
3:43
or I'm gonna put as much as I like in there.
3:47
I think I'm gonna use this size pan.
3:49
(tools clinking) (package crinkling)
3:52
All right, we're gonna use our Chessmen cookies.
4:00
And did y'all notice there's no butter in this recipe?
4:04
Who said I couldn't cook without butter?
4:07
Oh, that's right, this ain't cooked. (laughs)
4:17
Okay, these Chessmen really, you know,
4:20
takes banana pudding to a new level.
4:24
- You're right that's the size pan.
4:28
- That you needed. - Yeah.
4:31
And it's not quite a 13 by 9.
4:37
- Now some people like more bananas.
4:44
Some people like more custard.
4:55
- Beautiful. - Having some glue in that.
4:57
I gotta wash my hands, so. - Taste it.
5:03
- So you know, it's according to what you like,
5:05
what your family likes, if
5:09
more bananas, less bananas, less cookies.
5:12
Truly up to you, whatever you want.
5:15
All right, so now we're gonna
5:24
and I can slice some more
5:27
if these two don't do it.
5:33
- [Paula] Everybody loves the banana pudding
5:35
that we serve at The Lady and Sons.
5:36
They just love it, love it, love it.
5:39
- [Don] You want me to do the Chessmen while you-
5:41
- [Paula] Please, please.
5:44
And I'm gonna wash my hands again.
5:50
- [Paula] Please and thank you.
6:00
- You know the only thing about this recipe
6:03
is the Chessmen cookies.
6:07
They're kind of pricey.
6:09
- Yeah. - So if you don't want to pay
6:13
for the Chessmen cookies,
6:21
Gonna spread that out, Don.
6:28
I'm just gonna kind of press those down into that pudding.
6:39
- I can get a little bit more,
6:45
little bit more to just try to cover those bananas up,
6:50
so they won't turn dark.
6:56
But they shouldn't with the fruit fresh.
6:57
- They shouldn't be around long enough to turn dark.
7:01
- They probably won't. (laughs)
7:03
Okay, there you go, it's all yours.
7:11
You'll be the queen of your party, won't they?
7:16
- [Don] They certainly will.
7:17
- [Paula] And I like this better after it sits.
7:22
we ain't got time to sit, do we?
7:24
- No, we don't. (laughs)
7:27
You talked me into it, Don.
7:28
- Absolutely. - Bon appetit.
7:30
- Bon appetit to you, Paula.
7:36
- That stuff is so good y'all.
7:40
Thank you, thank you, thank you, friend
7:43
for sharing this recipe with me
7:45
and the rest of the world.
7:47
- Rachel knew what she was doing.
7:54
And I love the Chessmen so much better
7:56
than I do the- - I do.
7:57
- The wafers. - I do too.
7:59
Yes, the vanilla wafers.
8:00
- So, Thanksgiving, it's just around the corner.
8:04
It's already November, I can't believe it.
8:10
Are you double dipping?
8:16
- Hopefully y'all won't have you guests like my cousin
8:18
at your table. (laughs)
8:21
Listen, I'm a double dipper too.
8:24
- But Don and I are sending you all kind of love
8:27
and best dishes and you'll be the hit at Thanksgiving.
