#90 Banana and Peanut Butter Snacking Cake

I eyed up this recipe in my Kraft Canada magazine. Then when I was visiting my mom and my grandma and aunt were planning to come over for coffee, I decided that it was a perfect time to try it out. It certainly passed the test. This recipe can be found online at: http://www.kraftcanada.com/en/recipes/banana-pb-snacking-cake-131560.aspx

• 2 eggs
• ½ cup oil
• ½ cup granulated sugar

• 1 teaspoon Magic Baking Powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ⅓ cup Kraft Whipped Peanut Butter
• 1 cup icing sugar
• ¼ cup milk

HEAT oven to 350ºF. BEAT first 4 ingredients in large bowl with mixer until well blended. Add bananas; mix well. MIX flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to banana mixture; mix well.

NOTES:

I am not sure if I have posted this note before or not but when I have bananas that are becoming quite ripe I throw them in the freezer. Then when I am ready to bake, I take them out and let them thaw. Then I cut off one and and squeeze the banana out of the peel. They then mash so nicely!
