AAVE slang derived from a brand of sweet snack that’s similar to a vanilla wafer. It describes a light skinned Caucasian person. Depending on usage it can be said neutrally, cheekily, or condescendingly. It can have implications similar to the slang “vanilla wafer” referring to a person who is unadventurous. In that context “nilla wafer” suggests a person has little exposure to cultural media, customs, and cuisine outside of their white racial experiences.
“I saw her on that show where she was booty shaking and trying to rap. I was like, ‘Okay, nilla wafer.’”

Damnit, we’re out of cookies. All we have is an 8-year old box of Nilla Wafers in the back of the pantry.

One day, there was a knock at my door. A mysterious drifter was on the other side. In his hands was a box, and on his lips were the words, "Listen closely; I don't have much time." Then he reached in the box and pulled out a Nilla Wafer top hat from inside. He said, "Wear it when it's time." And I said, "What time?" And then he died. Later, I realized he was talking about Nilla Wafer top hat time.
