Gingery Banana Pudding with Bourbon Cream

This pudding tasted great! The only thing that held it back from getting 5 stars was that it did not set up like it should. It was more soup than pudding. I followed the recipe exactly and even used a thermometer to make sure I hit 180 degrees. Maybe it was operator error. I would be willing to try it again.

I made this for a New Year's eve dinner I hosted. It came out yummy, but I have to say that the instructions don't seem to make sense. Step number 2 seems to try and do the same thing with the remaining milk and yolk mixture twice. Maybe I'm misreading, but it doesn't read right. I was nervous it wouldn't come out right after reading the 1st review, but it was very yummy!

The taste is good but consistency is soupy. I tried it twice just to make sure. I would not make this again without either reducing the amount of milk or increasing the amount of cornstarch.
