Time 1h

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 (2 1/8 ounce) butterfinger candy bars
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
3 eggs
4 very ripe bananas, mashed
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup buttermilk
12 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter

Steps:

  • To prepare the cake: Preheat oven to 350°F Grease and flour two 9" cake pans. In the food processor, coarsely chop the candy bars; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer. Beat in the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Mix in the mashed bananas and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, soda and salt. Add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk alternately to the egg mixture (in two to three additions each) and incorporate thoroughly. Fold in the chopped Butterfingers and divide the batter between the cake pans.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the cakes on wire racks for 10 minutes. Invert onto a rack and cool completely before frosting.
  • To prepare the frosting: In a large mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese, butter and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add the powdered sugar and peanut butter and mix until smooth.
  • To frost the cake, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread 1/4 of the frosting over the top. Place the second layer on top. Spread the remaining frosting over top and sides of the cake. Can garnish with additional crushed Butterfingers if desired!
  • Makes 10 servings.

This cake was a disaster! The batter was too thick and the cake didn't rise properly. I had to throw it away.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed this cake. The banana flavor was perfectly balanced by the peanut butter frosting.

This cake is a great way to use up overripe bananas. It's also a fun and easy recipe to make with kids.

This cake was a disappointment. The banana flavor was too strong and the frosting was too greasy.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cake turned out perfect. The frosting was a little too sweet for my taste, but that's just a personal preference.
