How To Make banana cake with nutella frosting

  • 1

  • 2
    Pour batter into 2 greased and floured 9 inch pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Can also use a 9 X 13 inch pan. Cool for 10 minutes in pan and then turn out onto a cooling rack. Cool completely before frosting.

    FROSTING: In a stand mixer beat butter and Nutella on medium, about 1 minute. Add in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time. Mixture will appear crumbly. Add in 2 tbsp. cream and continue beating on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes. Add additional tbsps. of cream until the frosting reaches a soft spreadable consistency. I used 4 tbsp. in total.
