Banana Pudding

1 box vanilla wafers
3 bananas
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups milk
2 eggs, separated
1 tablespoon margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

In a casserole dish pour about 3/4 of the vanilla wafers. Slice the bananas over that. Set aside.

Mix the cornstarch into the sugar and place in a large saucepan. Add milk and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Beat the egg yolks with a fork and add about 4 tablespoons hot milk/sugar mixture into the yolks, stirring until well blended (this prevents chunks of cooked egg yolk). Now pour the yolk mixture into the saucepan and continue cooking over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture begins to thicken. Add vanilla extract and margarine. Pour the pudding mixture over the bananas and wafers.

To make meringue, beat the two egg whites until stiff. Add 3 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Spread over the pudding. Brown slightly in 350 degree F oven.
