This is how you make a Banana Cake and Chocolate icing to add!
What You will need:
1 cup mashed banana (about 2 large
bananas)
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 Tbsp hot milk
1¾ cup plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
125g butter, softened
¾ cup Sugar
2 eggs
Icing:
1½ cups Chelsea Chocolate Icing
1 Tbsp butter (softened)
1-2 Tbsp Boiling water
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 180°C or 356F . Grease a deep 20cm round cake tin and line the base with baking paper.
Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs one at a time. Stir in bananas and vanilla essence until combined.
Mix baking soda and milk together before stirring into the banana mixture. Sift in flour and baking powder, fold into the mixture until combined.
Spoon mixture into prepared tin and smooth the top. Bake for 40-45 minutes until cooked (insert a clean skewer, if it comes out clean it is cooked). Stand for 5-10 mins before inverting onto a wire rack to cool. Ice with chocolate icing when cold.
Icing method:
Mix Chocolate Icing Sugar, butter and 1 Tbsp boiling water at a time until combined, adding more hot water until icing is a spreadable consistency.
