Instructions
1. Combine sugar, cornstarch and salt in a heavy saucepan.
2. Add eggs and egg yolk and whisk until combined.
3. Add milk and whisk until combined, about 30 seconds.
4. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture begins to thicken and bubble around the edges, about 7 minutes.
5. Remove from heat and whisk in butter one piece at a time, allowing each piece to fully incorporate before adding the next.
6. Whisk in vanilla.
7. Cover the surface of the pudding with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
8. Toss the banana slices with the lemon juice in a small bowl and set aside.
9. In each shot glass, carefully spread a teaspoon of pudding in the bottom. Cover with a vanilla wafer, then add a banana slice. Spoon another teaspoon of pudding on top of bananas. Repeat. Top each parfait with a vanilla wafer for garnish.
