First of all, I saw a Goldbelly<\/a> ad on Facebook. Did you know that you can get items from really famous bakeries shipped all over the country? You can even get a Vageode cake<\/a>. I’ll wait, you want to go look at that picture…<\/p>\n\n\n\n I really thought I was just going to hit a button and have this magic pudding shipped to her door, but….it’s not cheap getting that kind of thing shipped. I think Goldbelly has a great business model and I’ll definitely use them for something (maybe that cake…), but I just couldn’t justify $70 for pudding. Sooooo….off to the interwebs! Apparently, Magnolia Bakery is really cool about sharing their recipe<\/a> so off to the grocery store I went, then Bean and I got to work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n She started slicing bananas, while I beat up the whipping cream and folded in the pudding\/condensed milk mixture. Layered it up in a big tub and sent it to the fridge to set. Easy peasy! Four hours later, I put it into mason jars for delivery to my friend. Massive hit! She said it tasted just like the bakery. Bean and I were big fans, too, and the half that was still at our house did not last long. I confess, I ate more of it than Bean did. Really want to do it again, but the scale has been screaming at me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Quick note: The person that wrote up the recipe that we used said not to let the pudding go for longer than 8 hours before eating it all. Don’t believe that. It’s not as pretty after 8 hours because the bananas go completely soft and the cookies are total mush, but dang! The flavors meld so well and the pudding is just fine left-over for a few days…if it lasts that long!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of my dearest friends has an incredibly talented son.
