Banana-Sour Cream Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting image

I got this recipe from the Kraft Food and Family magazine. Each bit of this unbelievable cake brims with the sweet flavor of ripe bananas and a nutty walnut crunch. Plus, it gets a head start from a boxed cake mix to save you time. Time to make does not include cooling time.

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 (16 ounce) package powdered sugar
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease and flour 13 x 9-inch baking pan; set aside.
  • Beat cake mix, eggs, bananas, sour cream and oil in a large bowl with electric mixer on low speed just until moistened, stopping frequently to scrape bottom and side of bowl.

  • Tip: Neatly frost this cake by freezing cake layers about 20 minutes before frosting.
  • This helps to set the crumbs on the cut edges of the cake layers so they don't pull up into the frosting.
  • Don't worry if the frosting doesn't look perfect on the sides of the cake; the walnuts will cover any imperfections.
