Here is my favorite, easy as pie or in this case cake, banana cake recipe! Also, this cake is not a light cake, it has cream cheese, butter and sour cream in it! Although it does have fruit in it. That counts, right?
1 Box Yellow Cake Mix
2 to 3 medium ripe or overly ripe bananas
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 c to 1 c sour cream
Make the cake according to the box directions. Smash, mush and pretty much annihilate the bananas, then add them to the cake mix. Add 1 tsp. baking soda and sour cream, mix into batter. Pour into a greased 9×13 baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until cake is done in the middle.
I usually end up putting my cake in the freezer for a while to cool down and it helps when you put the frosting on so you don’t get crumbs in the frosting.
Cream Cheese Frosting
1 8oz Package of Cream Cheese softened
1/2 c Butter softened
2 c Powdered Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Mix all ingredients in a bowl on medium speed. You can add more or less powdered sugar depending on how sweet you want the frosting to taste.
Frost your cake and then refrigerate for a while before serving.
Keep cake refrigerated. Enjoy!

I'm baking this right now and I'm excited to see how it turns out!! Thanks for sharing!
Yummy!! Happy Heart Day!!
Thanks for sharing that easy recipe. It looks delicious.
I made this today, unfortunately when I put it in the freezer it collapsed. I also added a mashed banana to the cream cheese frosting recipe and it turned out lovely!
I wouldn’t put it in the freezer again, I had never done that before either. 🙁
Hi Deb,
Sorry to hear you had a collapse! I have not had that happen to me. The banana in the frosting sounds great, thanks for that tip! Glad you enjoyed the cake besides the collapse!
Can this be made into a cupcake?
I don’t see why not! In fact, I may have done that.
