Making Banana Cream Pie Jars is straightforward and enjoyable! Just follow these easy steps to create your delightful desserts:

1. Prepare the Pudding: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until it thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

2. Flavor the Pudding: Add vanilla extract to the pudding mixture and stir well to incorporate.

3. Fold in Whipped Cream: Carefully fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is well combined and fluffy. This step gives your pudding a delightful lightness.

4. Layer the Ingredients: In your chosen jars, start with a layer of graham cracker crumbs at the bottom (approximately 2 tablespoons).

5. Add Pudding: Spoon a layer of the prepared pudding over the graham cracker crumbs until the jars are about halfway full.

6. Add Banana Slices: Place a few banana slices on top of the pudding layer to add flavor and texture.

7. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layers (graham cracker crumbs, pudding, and bananas) until the jars are nearly full, leaving room for the final whipped cream topping.

8. Top with Whipped Cream: Finish each jar with a generous dollop of whipped cream.

9. Garnish: Add additional banana slices and a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs on top for a polished presentation.

10. Chill: Refrigerate the jars for about 15-30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld and the pudding set.
