THE BEST BANANA CAKE
This banana cake is delectably moist, perfectly sweet and easy to make. Dark brown sugar and sour cream add depth to the batter, and we added melted butter instead of vegetable oil for a flavor boost. Fluffy cream cheese frosting and swirls of dulce de leche will make you go back for seconds. We also upped the ante by using bananas in two ways -- fresh bananas are mixed into the cake while maple-candied banana chips create a crunchy topping.

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.
A-NUMBER-1 BANANA CAKE

GRANDMA RILEY'S BANANA CAKE
This favorite recipe has been passed down through my husband's family. His grandmother wrote this out for me shortly after we were married. She copied it from a recipe that her mother had written out for her many years before. These handwritten treasures in my recipe box bring back so many fond memories. -Jamie Dunn, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

NANA'S BANANA BREAD
In my opinion, this is the absolute best banana bread out there. I got it through a mail order recipe club called "Grandma's Kitchen". It is so easy to make, and it seems like everyone always has some ripening bananas that they're trying to get rid of!

NANA'S ZUCCHINI BANANA BREAD
Seeing all the recipes for zucchini posted lately reminded me of a Christmas and Thanksgiving favorite in my home. Nana made it when i was little and later when i had my own family I carried on the tradition. The smaller loaves are so moist and the flavor is unbelieveable. Noone would ever guess there was zucchini in the batter....

Steps:
- 1. Put bananas, zucchini, eggs, sugar,vanilla and oil in a large bowl. Mix well to blend all ingredients.
- 2. In separate bowl mix together flour, soda, salt, cinnamon and ground nuts. Add this to the large bowl and mix just until blended.
- 3. Pour mix into 5 to 7 mini loaf pans that have been sprayed with no stick cooking spray.
- 4. Bake in oven preheated to 350 degrees for about 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. (You can also do this in large loaf pan and cook for 55 minutes to 1 hour. The smaller loaves tend to come out more moist)
- 5. Allow to cool for 10 to 15 minutes and then remove from pans.
- 6. Glaze: Mix milk and powdered sugar in small bowl till desired consistency (I like mine thick but pourable) add in enough vanilla or banana extract (optional) to taste. Drizzle over loafs. Sprinkle with additional ground nuts.
- 7. Keep one (or two or three) for yourself and share the rest with your family and friends. (I wrap mine in pretty colored cellophane and tie with ribbons for thanksgiving treats for co-workers and friends.)
