How To Make strawberry banana pound cake

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350.
  • 2
    In a large mixing bowl combine the cake mix, jello, eggs, oil, sprite, vanilla and lemon extracts.
  • 3
    Toss one cup of the nuts with 3 tablespoons flour. Fold the nuts, strawberries and bananas into the cake mixture until well combined.
  • 4
    Pour mixture into a 12 cup bundt pan that has been sprayed liberally with nonstick baking spray or greased and floured.
  • 5
    Shake the pan around on a level surface to be sure the batter is evenly distributed.
  • 6
    Place in the oven and bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • 7
    Do not overbake. Remove from oven and allow to sit for about 20 minutes before turning it onto a cake plate.
  • 8
    While it cools prepare the cream cheese glaze. Beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until fluffy.
  • 9
    Add the vanilla and the powdered sugar. Add the milk or cream and beat until smooth.
  • 10
    When it has cooled completely pour the cream cheese glaze over all and sprinkle with the other 1/2 cup of chopped pecans
