Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
6 (about 3 cups mashed) very ripe bananas (mashed)
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar (firmly packed)
1 cup vegetable oil
4 large eggs (at room temperature and lightly beaten)
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 (3.4-ounce) box instant vanilla pudding
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)
1 (3.4-ounce) box instant vanilla pudding
3-4 cups powdered sugar (sifted)
1 (8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping (Thawed)
2 bananas (sliced)
2 cups vanilla wafers (lightly crushed)
12-14 whole vanilla wafers

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 3-9 inch round cake pans with parchment paper and spray with nonstick Bakers Spray.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt to combine. Set aside.
  • In a separate medium mixing bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, mix the banana, sugar, and brown sugar until combined.
  • Add oil, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla and mix until combined and the mixture is smooth.
  • With the mixer on low, gradually add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and mix, just until flour disappears into the batter (do not overmix).
  • Pour batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake 30- 38 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, turn out onto a cooling rack and cool completely.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, mix together the pudding mix and cream cheese until smooth. With the mixer set on low, gradually add the cream and beat until the mixture is very thick.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, beat the butter until it's light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the pudding mix and beat until combined.
  • With the mixer on low, gradually add half the powdered sugar. Beat until well combined and the mixture is smooth. Add more powdered sugar as needed to achieve desired spreadable consistency.
  • Fold in thawed frozen whipped topping until evenly mixed.
  • Pipe a border of frosting around the edges of 2 of the layer cakes.
  • Top the cakes with a thin layer of sliced bananas within the border of frosting.
  • Divide the pudding filling in half, and pipe or spread 1/2 the pudding mixture within the frosting border, on the 2 layers.
  • Sprinkle with about 3/4 cup lightly crushed Vanilla Wafers. Gently press into filling.
  • Stack the 2 cakes on top of each other, then top with the third cake.
  • Spread a thin layer of the frosting over sides and top of the cake. Refrigerate until frosting has set a bit, about 20 minutes.
  • Press a border of whole Vanilla Wafers around the base of the bottom cake then sprinkle the top layer with lightly crushed Vanilla Wafers. Refrigerate cake for a minimum of 1 hour to firm and set. Serve cake.

BANANA CAKE WITH PUDDING ICING



Banana Cake With Pudding Icing image

Easy, one-bowl cake with a divine icing. This is the ULTIMATE banana cake, great way to use ripe bananas, too. The icing makes a lot, but if you're like me, I'm lucky if half of it makes it onto the cake and not in my mouth/lol. Also, great to turn the cake onto a platter, so you can cover the sides with icing, too. If you like bananas, I GUARANTEEE you will LOVE this cake!!
