I haven tried this recipe but it sounded good although I think the rum flavoring will be very light...but I liked the sauce with the cake... this is a recipe from Land'o lakes
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup land o lakes® butter, softened
4 land o lakes® all-natural eggs
4 medium (2 cups) ripe bananas, mashed
1/4 teaspoon rum extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
sauce ingredients
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/3 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons water
5 tablespoons land o lakes® butter
1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 teaspoon rum extract
topping ingredients
1 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
cup honey roasted cashews, if desired
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F. Combine sugar and 1 cup butter in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs; continue beating until well mixed. Reduce speed to low; add bananas and 1/4 teaspoon rum extract. Beat until well mixed. Add all remaining cake ingredients. Continue beating, scraping bowl often, just until mixed.
2. Pour into greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool, uncovered, at least one hour.
3. Meanwhile, combine brown sugar, water and corn syrup in small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is completely dissolved (3 to 4 minutes). Add 5 tablespoons butter; continue cooking until butter is melted (1 to 2 minutes). Remove from heat; stir in condensed milk and 1/4 teaspoon rum extract. Cool 15 minutes.
4. Beat whipping cream in small bowl at high speed until soft peaks form. Continue beating, gradually adding powdered sugar, until stiff peaks form.
5. To serve, place individual cake servings onto dessert plates. Drizzle with about 1 tablespoon sauce. Dollop with whipped cream; sprinkle with cashews, if desired. Drizzle with additional sauce. Store refrigerated.
6. Recipe Tip
7. Leftover ripe bananas can be frozen and used later for banana bread or other banana recipes. Place unpeeled bananas in resealable plastic freezer bag and freeze. Thaw at room temperature and mash according to recipe.
8. Recipe Tip
9. To keep bananas from ripening too quickly, place bananas in refrigerator until desired ripeness. The peel may darken but the banana will ripen more slowly than it will at room temperature.
