These Butterscotch Banana Pudding Parfaits are a perfect anytime dessert!
Monday was my baby’s third birthday! He is such a sweet, funny, and creative little man, and I love him to pieces! We had pizza and cake with family to celebrate his birthday, but I thought it would be fun to share a virtual treat here in honor of his special day. I originally wrote this Butterscotch Banana Pudding Parfait for TodaysMama, but The Short One’s birthday seemed to be a perfect occasion to bring it over here. It’s SO good and SO easy to make! This dessert is great for summer when you don’t want to turn on the oven, or it’s perfect for days that you are short on time because it comes together quickly. This recipe also makes a fun “cooking” project to do with kids. Really, any time is the right time to make these Butterscotch Banana Pudding Parfaits, so give them a try soon!
Spread about 2 tbsp. pudding into the bottom of an 8 oz. glass. Arrange an even layer of banana slices over the pudding, then sprinkle gingersnap pieces over the bananas. Carefully spread about 3 tbsp. whipped topping over the gingersnaps.
Repeat the layers in step one once more, then top with a final dollop of whipped topping.
Repeat this process in three more 8-oz. glasses. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
You can make these up to 12 hours ahead of time and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Thanks, Marcie. He had a fun birthday! We don’t have family near us, so it was fun to be able to celebrate a birthday with a room full of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
