CLASS

For the pudding: Fold together pudding, cream and orange zest in a large bowl until combined.
Pour a very thin layer of honey or corn syrup on a small plate. Make a pile of gold sanding sugar on another small plate. Hold a coupe glass upside down and gently tap the rim in the honey (a little goes a long way). Immediately roll the edge of the glass in the sanding sugar and place upright to dry. Repeat with 3 more coupe glasses.
Dollop about 1/4 cup pudding mixture into the bottom of each glass. Top with a layer of crumbled cookies, then a layer of banana slices and another 1/4 cup pudding. Chill until ready to serve, up to 2 hours.
For the bananas Foster: When you are ready to serve, melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet. Add brown sugar and cook until sugar dissolves. Stir in bananas until coated well. Take off the heat and carefully add rum, then light with a lighter or match and let burn until the liquor burns off. Let bananas cool slightly, then add a spoonful of bananas to each of the glasses. Serve immediately.

Cook’s Note

To make homemade whipped cream, combine 1 cup chilled heavy cream and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar in a large glass bowl. Whip, with a whisk or hand mixer, until stiff peaks form. To make a version with no alcohol, add 3 tablespoons orange juice to the pudding, and omit the rum and the flambeing of the bananas.

Use extreme caution when igniting alcohol. Remove the pan from the heat source before adding the alcohol. Pour the alcohol into the pan and carefully ignite with a match or click lighter. Return the pan to the heat and gently swirl to reduce the flames.
