How To Make strawberry banana pound cake

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl combine the cake mix, jello, eggs, oil, sprite, vanilla and lemon extracts.
Step 3

Toss one cup of the nuts with 3 tablespoons flour. Fold the nuts, strawberries and bananas into the cake mixture until well combined.
Step 4

Pour mixture into a 12 cup bundt pan that has been sprayed liberally with nonstick baking spray or greased and floured.
Step 5

Shake the pan around on a level surface to be sure the batter is evenly distributed.
Step 6

Place in the oven and bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 7

Do not overbake. Remove from oven and allow to sit for about 20 minutes before turning it onto a cake plate.
Step 8

While it cools prepare the cream cheese glaze. Beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until fluffy.
Step 9

Add the vanilla and the powdered sugar. Add the milk or cream and beat until smooth.
Step 10

When it has cooled completely pour the cream cheese glaze over all and sprinkle with the other 1/2 cup of chopped pecans
