  1. I've never made regular banana pudding so I have no point of comparison, but this was definitely easy to prepare. Mine took three rounds (at the 3 min part) and my 3 year old had a blast helping me arrange the cookies and bananas- almost as much fun as my husband had eating it!
     
  2. Made this for the church tonight. I couldn't believe how easy it was. My microwave only needed 2 turns plus 1 minute. I grabbed mini vanilla wafers at the store. They worked fine just took the ocd part of me longer to make them all flat and turned to the same side.
