Lately my sweet tooth has been in overdrive. I cant stop craving sweets!! I keep bags of candy in my house, ice cream in the freezer and I stay baking cakes, cheesecakes etc. I need to be checked into rehab lol. So today, as usual, I was craving sweets but I wanted something a little out of the usual. So I got to brainstorming and what I came up with was, a strawberry banana cake. If you love strawberry banana like I do, you will absolutely adore this cake. And it's really simple to make too.
Strawberry Banana Cake
(Don't judge my frosting skills :P ) haha.
Cake
1 Betty Crocker's Super Moist Yellow Cake
3-4 Bananas Mashed
1/4 Strawberry Pie Filling
1 Teaspoon Strawberry Extract
2 Teaspoon Banana Extract
Icing
2 Philadelphia Cream Cheese (room temperature)
1 box Confectioners Sugar
Topping
Remainder of Strawberry Pie Filling
1-2 Bananas cut in slices
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Prepare Betty Crocker's Cake Mix as directed and set aside (do not bake!!) In a separate bowl, mash bananas, then add to the cake mixture. Next add 1/4 c of strawberry pie filling, 1 tsp. strawberry extract, and 2 tsp banana extract. Mix well. Spray baking pans, then add cake mixture and bake for 25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
While the cake is baking, prepare the icing.
In a bowl mix cream cheese and powder sugar with hand held blender. Blend until smooth.
(Tip- Keep the frosting in the fridge until you're ready to use it.)
After your cake is cool, Begin Icing your cake as usual. Top the cake with the remainder strawberry filling and banana slices. Store the cake in fridge.
(Tip- I only put the banana slices in between the two cake layers. And I also squeezed some lemon juice over them to keep them from turning brown.)
