Chocolate Chip Banana Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour oblong pan, 9x13x2 inches.
• Beat all ingredients, except chocolate chips, in large mixer bowl on low speed, scraping bowl constantly, 30 seconds. Beat on high speed, scraping bowl occasionally, 3 minutes.
• Stir in chocolate chips by hand.
• Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake until toothpick or cake tester inserted in center comes out clean, approximately 45 minutes.
• Cool cake completely and frost with Vanilla Butter Frosting.
• To make VANILLA BUTTER FROSTING:.
• Blend powdered sugar into butter.
• Stir in vanilla and milk.
• Beat until frosting is smooth and of spreading consistency.
• Hint #1. For best results, be sure the bananas you use for cakes are fully ripened. If you use firm bananas, the cake will not have the fragrance or the flavor.
• Hint #2. To sour milk: Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. For this recipe, use 2 teaspoons vinegar or lemon juice for 2/3 cup milk.
• Hint #3. When it comes to homemade frosting, I usually increase the recipe by one-half; so in this case, I used 4 ½ cups powdered sugar, 7 ½ tablespoons butter, and 2 ¼ teaspoons vanilla (using the same measuring spoons, 1 ½ teaspoons first, and then ½ and ¼ teaspoons vanilla).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F.
• Coat 9" square pan with cooking spray; flour lightly.
• Combine flour,sugar,soda and salt.
• In a second bowl mash bananas; stir in oil and eggs until just combined.
• Mix dry ingredients into banana mixture.
• Stir in chips.
• Pour batter into pan.
• Bake 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.

Steps:

• Process butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla for 2 minutes, scraping down bowl once or twice.
• While machine is running, drop chunks of bananas through the feed tube. Process until blended ( I mash my bananas before hand).
• Meanwhile, dissolve baking soda in yoghurt or sour cream. Let is stand for l to two minutes Yoghurt will nearly double in size, so use a 2 Celsius measuring cup.
• Add to batter and process for 3 seconds.
• Add flour and baking powder.
• Process with 4 quick on/off turns, just until flour mixture disappears.
• Add remaining ingredients.
• Bake in 2 greased and floured 8 inches pans for 25-30 minutes at 350°F
• (I also use waxed paper on the bottom of the pans - just cut a circle for the bottom - it makes it easier to take the cake out ) or until cake tester come out clean.
• Cool for 10 minute
• Remove from pan.
• Cool before icing.
• Butter Icing.
• ------------------.
• 1/4 cup butter.
• dash of salt.
• 2 cups icing sugar.
• 2-3 tablespoons hot milk or cream.
• 1 teaspoons vanilla.
• 2/3 cup cocoa plus 4 more tablespoons butter.
• Combine all ingred. and process until smooth and blended Ice the cool cakes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275.
• Line a 9 x 13 pan with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, mix mashed banana and lemon juice. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar until fluffy and consistent.
• Beat eggs into the butter/sugar mixture one at a time.
• Add 2 tsp vanilla.
• Alternate between the flour mixture and buttermilk, adding a little at a time of each to the butter/sugar mixture.
• Finally, mix the banana mixture into the rest.
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 1 hr and 15 min or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
• Put cake directly into the freezer from the oven and keep it there at least 45 minutes. I have kept it in there overnight before, and it turned out wonderfully moist.
• For the frosting, beat cream cheese and butter together until smooth and consistent.
• Add powdered sugar, cocoa, salt, cream, and vanilla. Mix until creamy and consistent.
• Stir in mini chocolate chips until consistent. Coat the cake evenly.
• I iced the top of the entire cake, cut it in half the short way, layered one side on top of the other, then covered the rest of the exposed cake with the remaining frosting.
• The more ripe the bananas, the better the cake. Use the brown ones you're about to have to throw out.
• My husband asked me to re-create the Havana Banana Chocolate Chip Cake they serve at Cheeseburgers in Paradise. I borrowed from the base of recipe 67256 and frosting recipe 192894. Been awhile, so I don't know if it was exactly like the Havana Banana, but it made everyone here very happy. Thanks!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Mix together the vanilla, eggs and orange juice in a measuring cup or small bowl. Cream the sugar and butter in a medium bowl until pale yellow and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add in the egg mixture and beat until creamy. Mix in the bananas until smooth. Pour the flour in 2 batches into the batter and mix on low speed until incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon. Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake 1 hour, covering lightly with foil if the top gets too brown. Cool, remove from the pan and slice. Serve dusted with the confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush the inside of a 10-by-5-inch loaf pan with coconut oil and line with a strip of parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, mash the bananas with the back of a fork until only a few lumps remain. Add the egg and mix until smooth. Using the fork, whisk in the almond milk, sugar, almond butter, coconut oil, vanilla and salt until smooth and incorporated. Add the almond flour, rice flour, baking soda and cinnamon and stir until combined with a rubber spatula. Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the walnuts on top. Bake until the bread is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with very few crumbs, 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes. Allow to cool for 30 minutes in the pan resting on its side. Loosen the edges with a knife and remove to a wire rack to cool completely. The bread will keep for 4 days at room temperature or can be sliced and frozen for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Spray the bottom of a 1 1/2-quart souffle dish with cooking spray. Line the bottom of the souffle dish with parchment paper and give a quick spray with cooking spray; set aside.
• Make a foil ring 1-inch thick for the souffle dish to sit on inside a 5-quart slow cooker.
• In a medium bowl, combine the bananas with the hazelnut liqueur. Add the muffin mix, evaporated milk, oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, chocolate chips and egg. Stir together until just blended.
• Transfer to the prepared souffle dish. Place the dish on top of the foil ring in the slow cooker. Lay 8 paper towels over top of the slow cooker bowl and secure with the lid. (This helps to trap steam.) Cook on LOW setting for 4 to 5 hours.
• Remove the cake and allow to cool completely.
• Cut the cake in half horizontally. Stir the rum extract into the cream cheese frosting and frost in between the layers and outside of the cake with the mixture. Garnish the sides of cake with chopped walnuts. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan (see Cook's Note) with aluminum foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the two longer sides. Lightly spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
• For the cake, mash the bananas in a large bowl with a fork or potato masher until very smooth. Whisk in the dark brown sugar, melted butter, sour cream, eggs and vanilla until smooth and combined. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture in thirds until just combined. Pour into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Leave the cake in the pan to cool slightly, about 30 minutes. Use the foil overhang to remove the cake from the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, beat the butter, cream cheese and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Reduce to low speed, then add the powdered sugar a cup at a time until smooth. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract.
• Transfer 1/2 cup of the frosting to a small bowl and stir in the dulce de leche until smooth. Cover both frostings with plastic wrap and keep at room temperature until ready to assemble the cake.
• For the candied banana chips, warm the maple syrup in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until it just starts bubbling. Add the banana chips and cook, tossing and stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until the chips have absorbed almost all the maple syrup and are browned in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Immediately transfer the banana chips to a baking sheet, spread in an even layer and cool completely. Once cool, roughly chop.
• Transfer the cake to a serving platter. Spread about 3/4 cup plain cream cheese frosting all over the top of the cake.
• Dollop the dulce de leche frosting and remaining plain frosting on top, then use a small offset spatula to swirl both frostings together in a swooping design, making sure the frosting goes all the way to the edges of the cake. Top with the chopped candied banana chips.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix instant coffee with water set aside for later. Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and baking powder together taking care that all the components are well combined and evenly distributed.
