This cake does not last long in our house. In truth I think it's the icing that makes the cake, but the moist cake is fabulous too. It freezes great as well.

BANANA CAKE WITH PUDDING ICING

Easy, one-bowl cake with a divine icing. This is the ULTIMATE banana cake, great way to use ripe bananas, too. The icing makes a lot, but if you're like me, I'm lucky if half of it makes it onto the cake and not in my mouth/lol. Also, great to turn the cake onto a platter, so you can cover the sides with icing, too. If you like bananas, I GUARANTEEE you will LOVE this cake!!

Banana Pudding Cake with Chocolate Icing image

I came up with this during a late night craving for a banana and chocolate milk shake, and it was a huge hit with my family!

Provided by Ashley Ritchie

Time 1h40m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 large eggs
½ cup mashed ripe banana
½ cup water
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
¼ cup sour cream
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 (5 ounce) package instant banana cream pudding mix
½ cup salted sweet cream butter, softened
3 tablespoons heavy cream, or more to taste
⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 ½ cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
  • Mix together eggs, mashed banana, water, evaporated milk, sour cream, and oil in a large bowl. Stir in cake mix, then sugar and brown sugar, then pudding mix. Mix to thoroughly incorporate all ingredients; pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool, about 30 minutes.
  • While cake is cooling, combine butter and cream for icing in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on medium speed until combined. Increase speed to high and mix, stopping to scrape down the sides once or twice, until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Mix in cocoa powder and vanilla. Add confectioners' sugar gradually on low speed until combined. Increase speed to medium and whip for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Spread icing on the cooled cake, or store in the refrigerator until cake is fully cooled.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pudding icing will be. Use real butter, pure vanilla extract, and high-quality chocolate.
  • Make sure the pudding is cold before using it: This will help the icing to set properly.
  • Beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will create a smooth and creamy icing.
  • Add the pudding and vanilla extract and beat until well combined: Be careful not to overbeat, or the icing will become too thin.
  • Use the icing immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use: If you are storing the icing, be sure to bring it to room temperature before using.

Conclusion:

Pudding icing is a delicious and versatile icing that can be used to top cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect pudding icing that will impress your friends and family.
