5 ml pure vanilla extract

# Directions:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until the mixture is creamy and lump free.
02 -
In a separate chilled bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream to soft peaks, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture to maintain volume.
03 -
Whisk together instant banana pudding mix and cold milk in another bowl until thickened, approximately 2–3 minutes.
04 -
Carefully fold the banana pudding into the cream cheese and whipped cream mixture until homogenous. Refrigerate the filling while preparing cones.
05 -
Combine crushed vanilla wafer cookies with melted butter in a small dish. Dip the upper edge of each cone into the mixture, then roll in cookie crumbs for a decorative rim. Allow cones to set for several minutes.
06 -
Transfer the chilled banana pudding cheesecake filling into a piping bag or use a spoon. Generously fill each prepared cone.
07 -
Top each filled cone with banana slices, a dollop of whipped cream, extra crushed vanilla wafers, and an optional caramel drizzle. Serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
For best results, serve these cones immediately after filling to maintain the crisp texture of the cones.
02 -
The filling can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before serving.
