Directions
Whisk together first 5 ingredients in a saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, 8 to 10 minutes or until it reaches the thickness of chill pudding. Let mixture start to bubble. You should be able to make a soft peak with a whisk. Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract. Use pudding immediately.
In a medium sized saucepan, melt 1/4 stick of butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, rum extract, vanilla extract, and cinnamon then bring to a slight bubble. Add the bananas and let cook until heated through for 2-3 minutes. Set aside to use immediately.
Lay egg roll wraps out on parchment paper. Melt 2 tbsp of butter and place in a small bowl or mug. Lightly brush the inside of each egg roll wrapper with butter. Add a tsp of crushed wafer cookie, then pudding, qu
arter chop pieces of bananas and stir together slightly. Roll the egg roll wrap up enclosing all ingredients and then use a little bit of butter to secure the wrap.
Heat the canola oil in a skillet and then fry each eggroll until it has a golden brown crisp. Remove at once. Pour the rum sauce over the eggroll and then add desired toppings (powdered sugar, whipped cream, caramel sauce) and serve.
