Tips:

  • For the best results, use ripe bananas. This will give your cake a sweeter flavor and a more moist texture.
  • Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Be careful not to overbake the cake. Overbaking can dry out the cake and make it crumbly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • To make a peanut butter frosting, simply add 1/2 cup of peanut butter to the cream cheese frosting recipe.
  • For a chocolate frosting, simply add 1/2 cup of cocoa powder to the cream cheese frosting recipe.
  • This cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
