This is the best Banana cake that you will ever have! I got this from Jennifer Parks. We buy bananas and just wait for them to ripen so we can make this.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened
2 1/4 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups ripe bananas (3 medium)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups powder sugar
Directions:
1. Batter: In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar.
2. Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla.
3. In separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture.
4. Stir in bananas (I squish mine in my hand as I put it in).
5. Spread in a greased cookie sheet, 17 x 12 x 1 inch baking pan.
6. Bake at 350 for 20- 25 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out clean from the middle.
7. Cool before frosting. Store in fridge.
8. Frosting: In mixing bowl beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla.
9. Gradually beat in enough powder sugar to achieve desired consistency. After 2 cups of powdered sugar I start tasting to see when it seems balanced with sugar and cream cheese.
