This is what you end up with...and it freezes so well (without the icing of course...)
it is also nice as a warm sweet if you have run out of ideas... don't ice it and serve with whipped cream and mashed banana heated...wickedly scrumptious....
this is my very own "favorites" recipe book ...see how battered and marked it is!!...(Is yours like that???)
Once i used to be able to remember the recipes in my head ...note i said ONCE...now i have this book..heaven forbid if i ever misplace it..perhaps this is why i am sharing my recipes ..they will never be lost if you adopt them as your favorites too....
It really does work so well in a ring pan...havent tried it in an ordinary round pan... very moist and keeps for a week or more (thats if it lasts that long)

turned out and ready to ice....

yummy, that sounds great. I am going to have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteoooh, that looks delicious. will definitely be having a cook of it soon. i should have made it today actually...we had 3 brownish bananas in the fruit bowl and i made the kids eat them. lil didn't care but oscar said it was all squishy and wouldn't have a bar of it...so i mashed it up and put it on a folded over piece of bread and forced him to eat it!! poor little man, what a mean mum! but he said he wanted a banana and i didn't want him to let it go to waste! the cake would have been a MUCH friendlier option ;)
