Time 2h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (18.25 ounce) package butter pecan cake mix
1 ¼ cups water
⅓ cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 bananas, mashed
½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup toffee baking bits
½ cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
¼ cup milk
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease and flour a 9-inch fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt®).
  • Mix butter pecan cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs, bananas, pecans, and toffee baking bits in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Pour batter into prepared tube pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cake is lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool the cake in the tube pan for 15 minutes. Place a serving platter on top of the pan and invert pan. Gently lift pan from cake and let cake finish cooling.
  • Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until combined. Bring to a boil, stir in milk, and return to a rolling boil. Remove from heat; beat confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract into butter mixture to make a smooth frosting. Spread over cooled cake and allow to stand until frosting has set, about 15 minutes.

Time 1h

Yield 1 Cake

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup banana, mashed
1 box yellow cake mix
1 box instant butter pecan pudding mix
4 eggs
1 cup water
1/4 cup oil

1 tablespoon milk, heated
1 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

Tips:

  • To achieve a moist and flavorful cake, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the cake will be.
  • Make sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Gradually add the eggs to the creamed mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • Add chopped pecans to the batter for a crunchy texture.
  • Top the cake with a pecan streusel topping for a delicious finishing touch.
