Goddamned Nilla Wafers

[Tab]

I bought a box the other day. I forgot how &#$(*&$# addictive the damned things are.

1. There are things I won't buy because I know I'll eat the whole thing

and those are tops on the list.

2. Evil little cookies of Satan

When I use to bake more often they were a staple in my creating all kinds of bars, Triffels and ice box cakes/pies. Those cookies alone are probably directly responsible for at least 20 of the many extra pounds I'm trying to lose.

3. I like to think I don't buy that kind of crap anymore because it's so bad

for me. The truth is, they are like crack cocaine and I would eat the whole box in about two sittings.

7. How can you cuss out such a sweet treat?

I recall a great banana treat with nilla wafers.



Original Nilla Banana Pudding

Ready in: 60 mins.

Layers of Nilla wafers, creamy pudding and fresh banana slices
are the stars of this American classic.

3/4 cup sugar, divided
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Dash salt
3 eggs, separated
2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
45 NILLA Wafers, divided
5 ripe bananas, sliced (about 3 1/2 cups), divided
Additional NILLA Wafers and banana slices, for garnish


1. Mix 1/2 cup sugar, flour and salt in top of double boiler.
Blend in 3 egg yolks and milk. Cook, uncovered, over boiling water,
stirring constantly for 10 to 12 minutes or until thickened. Remove
from heat; stir in vanilla.

2. Reserve 10 wafers for garnish. Spread small amount of custard
on bottom of 1 1/2-quart casserole; cover with a layer of wafers
and a layer of sliced bananas. Pour about 1/3 of custard over
bananas. Continue to layer wafers, bananas and custard to make
a total of 3 layers of each, ending with custard.

3. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form; gradually add remaining
1/4 cup sugar and beat until stiff but not dry. Spoon on top of
pudding, spreading evenly to cover entire surface and sealing well
to edges.

4. Bake at 350°F in top half of oven for 15 to 20 minutes or
until browned. Cool slightly or refrigerate. Garnish with
additional wafers and banana slices just before serving.

8. I ate a half a box today

But they were the generic type.

I'll probably finish off the box before lunch tomorrow. Bad boy.

9. Nilla Wafers are the best when you open the bag and leave 'em out for two days

Stale, soft Nilla wafers are THE BEST.

10. Never Saw The Appeal

Just didn't.
