Tips For The Best Banana Cheesecake Parfait Follow these tips to make the best banana pudding parfait with nilla wafers. Use softened cream cheese. Let the cream cheese soften slightly before using to ensure a smooth and creamy result. Bring heavy cream to stiff peak stage. If your cream isn’t whipped enough it will not form a clear layer and seep into the other layers. Slice the bananas when you are ready to assemble. This way they look fresh and most appetizing. Use pastry bags for layering. To ensure clear, smudge free layers pipe the creams into the jars using pastry bags. Refrigerate the banana pudding for a couple of hours. Banana cream cheese parfaits taste best after resting in the fridge for about 3 hours. HOW TO STORE Refrigerate: Assembled banana puddings with cream cheese need to be refrigerated until ready to serve. They can be kept in the fridge for a couple of hours, and even taste best after cooling for about 3 hours. However, storing them too long might cause the banana slices to turn brown. Leftover pudding can be stored without banana slices or cookie crumbles in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
