Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
Cream Topping
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg, at room temperature
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Banana Cake Batter
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 medium ripe bananas, pureed with 1/2 tsp lemon juice (1 cup banana puree)
2 cups flour
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup (8 oz) banana yogurt (see note)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped pecans, walnuts, cashews, or macadamia nuts
Icing
1/2 cup confectioners sugar
1 tsp milk or cream (about)
Preheat the oven to 350. Line 9 x 13 inch baking pan with non-stick foil.
Make the Cream Topping: In a medium mixing bowl, blend together the cream cheese and sugar with a hand mixer. Add the egg and beat until incorporated and smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract. Set aside.
Make the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar with the butter until well-mixed. It will look crumbly. Add the eggs, one at a time, blending completely after each one. Add the vanilla extract and bananas. Mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, combine flour with baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture and yogurt to the butter mixture, a third at a time, alternating between the two until all is incorporated.
Fold in chocolate chips and nuts (pecans, walnuts, cashews, or macadamia nuts). Pour batter into prepared baking pan and smooth. Drop dollops of the cream cheese topping on top of the banana batter, then smooth to cover. Bake about 35 to 40 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove to rack to cool completely to room temperature.
Make the Icing: Mix milk or cream with confectioners sugar until smooth, adding enough liquid so it can be drizzled. Scrape into a zip-top bag, squeeze out the air, and seal. Snip a small corner from the bottom of the bag and drizzle the icing on top of the banana cake. Let sit at least an hour to set.
Notes: Sour cream or vanilla yogurt may be substituted for the banana yogurt. To use as a Bundt cake: Pour banana batter into a greased and floured 12-cup Bundt cake pan. Spread cream topping evenly over banana batter. Bake about 1 hour.
