A luscious banana cream pie for chocolate lovers. Malted milk adds a twist to this creamy and ultra-decadent pie.

Notes:I recommend Carnation or Horlicks brand for the malt powder. I used Nabisco Famous wafers for the crust (about 32 wafers). If all of the pudding won't fit into the pie plate, chill remaining pudding separately until set, then spoon over the top. Baking the crust is optional. The crust will be sturdier if baked, but is not necessary.
