Creamy, real banana ice cream studded with pieces of vanilla cookie and pockets of sweet whipped cream combine to make Banana Pudding Ice Cream. If you like banana pudding, you'll go wild for this!
Combine the milk, bananas, brown sugar, white sugar, salt, and vanilla in the blender. Puree until smooth. Add the heavy cream and pulse a few times to combine.
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. While the ice cream is churning, make the stabilized whipped cream. Break or roughly chop the vanilla wafers.
When the ice cream finishes churning, scoop about a third of it into a freezer safe container. Top with dollops of whipped cream and swirl lightly with a knife or the end of a spoon. Sprinkle with vanilla wafer pieces. Repeat the layers twice more. Freeze until ready to serve.
Notes
You will need only HALF of this recipe for stabilized whipped cream. You can make the entire batch and then top your servings with an additional dollop of whipped cream, or reduce the recipe by half when making it.
