Banana Pudding - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
3 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla
12 ounces vanilla wafers
6 bananas

Preparation

Combine sugar, flour and salt in saucepan; Stir in milk and cook over medium heat until thick. (Be careful not to scortch pan).
Beat egg yolks, temper egg yolks by adding two tbsp of hot mixture to yolks then yolks to hot mixture.
Cook for 5 minutes; remove from heat, stir in vanilla.
In a 9x13 pan place a single layer of vanilla wafers on the bottom of the dish and up the sides.
Place banana slices over cookies, top with pudding and chill in refrigerator.
Before serving top with real whip cream. (Some people prefer meringue or cool whip which is fine but I think a 1/2 pt of heavy whip cream beat with 2 tbsp of sugar is the icing on the pudding).
