Banana Cake With Bourbon Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Grease and flour two 8 round pans.
3. In a small bowl whisk together flour, soda, and salt.
4. In a large bowl, cream butter, white sugar and brown sugar until fluffy.
5. Beat in eggs one at a time.
6. Mix in bananas*.
7. Add flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk to the creamed mixture.
8. Pour into cake pans.
9. Bake for 30 minutes.
10. While the cake is baking, make frosting: beat butter and cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar and Bourbon- if the amount of booze scares you, add less, or use bourbon flavoring.
11. *Wefreeze overripe bananas- when it's time to use them, we place them in a cup of hot water for just a few minutes, and they slide right out of their peel.
12. Once the cakes cool, frost them- the cake (stacked) is pretty heavy and dense, so don't expect a tall fluffy cake.
13. Stays moist for days if covered properly.
