1/2 cup finely chopped pecans |
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package spice cake mix |

1 1/3 cups water |
3 eggs |
1 large ripe banana, mashed, about 3/4 cup |
1 cup mini chocolate chip |
3 (16 ounce) cans vanilla frosting |
chocolate dipped pecans (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Coat two 9-inch round cake pans with cooking spray.
3. Spread pecans over ungreased baking sheet. Bake 3-4 minutes until lightly browned. Cool.
4. At low speed beat cake mix, oil, water, eggs and banana 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium; beat 2 minutes. Stir in pecans and chocolate chips.
