Banana Butterscotch Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and lightly flour a 2-quart ramekin or souffle dish and tap out the excess flour. Put the ramekin on a baking sheet.
• Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice and ginger in a large bowl. Whisk the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, banana, sour cream, eggs and vanilla in a separate large bowl until smooth. Whisk the flour mixture into the banana mixture until just combined.
• Pour 2 1/2 cups of the batter into the ramekin and stack the ice cream bars on top of each other in the middle. Pour the remaining batter around the sides and over the top of the ice cream bars.
• Bake until the cake is set and the center is still jiggly, about 45 minutes. Let the cake cool in the ramekin for 15 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar and scoop out portions with a spoon to 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 an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 9x5-inch loaf pans. Set aside. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Beat in the egg, then stir in the mashed bananas. Pour in the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in the butterscotch chips and walnuts; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 28 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F. Generously grease and flour a large Bundt or tube cake pan. In a small bowl, microwave 1-1/3 cups of the butterscotch chips 30 seconds at power level 7, then stir and continue to microwave at 15-second intervals until melted. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl and using a hand mixer, beat the cake mix, eggs, mashed bananas, sugar, water, and oil as directed on cake mix box. Measure out 2-1/2 cups of the batter into a separate bowl then stir the melted butterscotch chips into it. Alternating the two batters, spoon into the cake pan. (My pan was about 3/4 full). Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until center tests done with a wooden toothpick. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes then remove cake to rack to cool completely. Place the remaining 1/3 cup butterscotch chips in a small plastic ziptop bag and microwave for a few seconds at a time, kneading it with your fingers in between, just until it's smooth. Snip off a small corner from one side of the bag and pipe over cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Grease 10-cup Bundt pan or round tube pan.
• Microwave 1-1/3 cups butterscotch morsels in medium, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on medium-high(70%) power for 1 minute.
• STIR.
• The morsels may retain some of their original shape.
• If necessary, microwave an additional 10 to 15 second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted.
• Combine cake mix, eggs, bananas, vegetable oil, water and granulated sugar in large mixer bowl.
• Beat on low speed until moistened.
• Beat on high speed for 2 minutes.
• Stir 2 cups batter into melted morsels.
• Stir chocolate chips and chopped nuts into remaining batter.
• Alternately spoon batters into prepared baking pan.
• Bake 35-45 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in cake comes out clean.
• Cool in pan for 20 minutes; invert onto wire rack to cool completely.
• Place remaining morsels in small, heavy-duty plastic bag.
• Microwave on medium-high(70%) power for 30 seconds; knead.
• Microwave an additional 10-15 second intervals, kneading until smooth.
• Cut tiny corner from bag; squeeze to drizzle over cake.

Steps:

• Melt 75g of the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second bursts. Whizz the biscuits in a food processor into crumbs. Pour the melted chocolate onto the biscuit crumbs and whizz again. Spread the biscuit mixture across the base and up the sides of a 16-18cm shallow pie or cake tin, then put in the fridge to set
• Sprinkle the butterscotch pudding powder into the milk and whisk together until smooth. Slice the bananas. Take the tin out of the fridge and spread the salted caramel sauce over the base. Cover the caramel with the banana slices. The pudding will have started to thicken, so give it a brief whisk, then spoon it over the bananas. Put in the fridge for 5-10 mins to set. Melt the remaining chocolate and drizzle over the pie to serve.
