Cream Cheese Frosted Banana Cake



Tips for Success

  • Ripe Bananas : Use very ripe bananas for maximum flavor and moisture. The darker the peel, the sweeter the banana!
  • Cool Completely : Ensure the cake layers are completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
  • Frosting Consistency : If the frosting feels too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
  • Make-Ahead : You can prepare the cake layers up to a day ahead and store them tightly wrapped in plastic at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
