About

My Grandma is one of those great home cooks that can make a can of beans taste like the best you've ever eaten. She has a lot of great recipes that she has made over the years that are really good and you can't wait to eat them. One of her most requested recipes is Banana Pudding. It is a creamy luscious dessert that has comforting memories attached to it. The recipe is simple and is best made the night before so the flavors can develop and the pudding can thicken.
Here is her recipe (with her permission) that she has made for years and is a staple at our family get togethers. The bowl is always scraped clean because it is that delicious. Make this for your family and you will be Cooking The Amazing
