Blueberry Buckle
It was OK. A little overly moist maybe. I think this is because it's actually more of a muffin batter than a bread batter. It was still really good.

Homemade Banana Pudding Pie
Yes! This is the way to make banana pudding! My only suggestion is that instead of using whole cookies, crush them to a fine crumb and only line the sides of the dish with the whole cookies. So, it's crumbs, bananas, pudding... crumbs, bananas, pudding, then topping. I've read so many recipes that have corn starch in them instead of flour. What?

Tres Leches III
I haven't made the cake and so I feel I don't have the right to really rate it, but I wanted to comment on the recipe itself because tres leches cake ... the kind made in it's country of origin, Nicaragua, is never made with a butter cake. It's a type of sponge cake frosted with meringue. So, if you are having trouble with this cake, try it with a sponge cake recipe and see if that doesn't solve the problem of it being too dense. Again, I have not tried this particular recipe, so blow this off if you have and love it. I just thought I'd add that it's usually sponge cake.
