Ingredients:
Cake:
Icing:
- ¼ cup softened butter
- 30groom temperature cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1-1 ½ cups powdered sugar
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 180 Fahrenheit.
- Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Add your ripe bananas to a blender and blend until smooth. You can mash them, but I find the texture of the cake is best with pureed banana instead of mashed.
- Measure out 1 cup and add to a mixing bowl with all wet ingredients.
- Mix with an electric mixer until well combined.
- Add in the dry ingredients, aside from the chocolate chips, making sure to spoon and level the flour.
-
Mix until smooth, then fold in the chocolate chips.
-
Transfer to your prepared pan and bake for 22-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then lift out onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
-
Meanwhile, beat together the softened butter and cream cheese for 2-3 minutes. Add in the powdered sugar followed by the vanilla until smooth and creamy.
-
If it's too thick, add a splash of milk, if you want it thicker, add more sugar.
-
Once the cake has cooled, add the frosting on top and enjoy!
