How To Make banana pudding cake

  • 1
    Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan. In a large bowl, stir together cake mix and pudding mix. Make a well in the center and pour in eggs, water, oil and mashed banana. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl, and beat 4 minutes on medium speed. Pour batter into prepared pan.

  • 3
    Cream Cheese Icing: In bowl, beat cream cheese with butter until smooth. Beat in vanilla and lemon juice, add in icing sugar, one-third at a time, until smooth (adding more if necessary). Spread over top of cake. (Make-ahead: Cover loosely and refrigerate for up to I day.)

    (a couple tips which you may already know :) I brush the cake top to remove any lose crumbs, and freeze the cake for a good hour as this will be easier to frost the cake without getting crumbs mixed in!)

    Decorate as you wish :) I used some Nillas and banana slices :) but you can add whatever topping you would like or leave it as is :)
