Directions
Vanilla Cream Pie/Chocolate/Coconut/Banana Cream Pudding, This recipe came from a Betty Crocker Cookbook, 1972 I have since lost that book, however, I have always made my pudding, pies including the best banana pudding you will ever taste! I have altered the recipe to cook in the microwave, and have included stove top directions also Every time I take this to a potluck, I have to give out recipes–so I thought I would just refer them here! use this crust Recipe #174625 Enjoy!, Don’t mean to nitpick because I haven’t tried the recipe yet, but why are there two quantity amounts for cornstarch and vanilla? Are we to use 1/4 Cup plus 2 TB cornstarch? And 1 TB plus 2 tsp of vanilla? This should be made clearer , Perfect! Appreciate the microwave technique which took maybe up to 12 minutes Made banana version, can’t wait to try coconut version!
