| MOIST BANANA CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING | |
|
This is a really good, moist cake! I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does! 3 small ripe bananas or 2 large ripe bananas 4 large tablespoons dairy sour cream 1 white cake mix 3 egg whites 2 tbsp. oil 1 1/3 cups milk 1 tsp. vanilla flavoring Frosting: 1 (8 oz.) pkg cream cheese 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter 1/3 cup nuts of your choice (I use walnuts) 1 (1 lb.) box powdered sugar (4 cups) 1 tsp. vanilla flavoring Blend bananas with mixer, adding your sour cream. When mixture is well blended, not lumpy, add your cake mix, egg whites, oil, milk, flavoring together and mix. Add milk last so you will be able to judge the consistency of the cake and adjust as needed. Once well blended, pour mixture into a greased/sprayed, 9x13-inch cake pan or 3 cake layers. Bake at 350°F for about 25 min. or until the cake is done. Cake will spring back in the center when touched if done, don't over bake! Remove cake from oven and allow to cool. Tip: Place wax paper over cakes to capture the moisture while cooling; this adds to a really moist, delicious cake! Mix cream cheese and butter together in a bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix until you get the consistency you like. Add a little milk to the frosting while mixing if you like it to be creamy. When icing is done, add 1/3 chopped walnuts to the icing. Crush them right out of the package with the end of a blunt object to make smaller pieces. Stir walnuts into frosting well. After cakes have cooled, frost each layer with icing.

Macsgirl (Texas) says:
I have looked for a long time for a recipe like this one it is so moist and not too heavy it smells and tastes like banana pudding very yummy not at all dense or like banana bread this is truly a banana CAKE! I made a few small changes but did not stray too far from the recipe.Instead of whole milk for the cake I used buttermilk and instead of sour cream I used unsweetend plain yogourt and I also used the entire egg I only changed what I did because these are my favorite ingredients to use in a cake I did make the cake with the orginal ingredients afterward and it was equally as good one thing,you can use any kind of nuts in the frosting you want I tried plain and black walnuts,black walnuts are awesome!I hope you try this cake its a great way to use up overripe bananas and makes a very special treat for your family.

This was the hit of the party. I've had to send the recipe to everyone. So moist and tasty. The frosting was just the right finish to it all.

It took me a lot longer to bake 15 minutes. I also reduced the frosting sugar to about 2 cups. This was a great way to get rid of those bananas I always end up throwing away!

Wow I have been searching high and low for the right banana cake recipe with light, moist cake texture. Every other recipe I have tried tasted more like bread or a muffin!!! I also used the entire eggs although I wonder what difference does the egg whites do??? If anyone one knows please tell me the difference? I made cupcakes so yummy!! Thank you Stephanie!!

I'm not a huge cake lover (pies are my favorite) but tried this to use up bananas. YUM! Excellent cake and easy and fast to put together. I only used about half of the frosting receipe for a 9 x 13 cake and found it was plenty. Thanks for the recipe.

I made the frosting recipe included for another cake I made, but couldn't imagine using 4 cups, so I used three and it was delicious! I probably would have been able to get by with 2 and 1/2 cups of sugar, but 3 was delicious!
