      I found this simple but delicious dessert somewhere on line but don't remember where. Anyway, though I rarely, rarely used boxed cake mixes, or any prepackaged food this one is very good.

      Banana Cake

      1 yellow cake mix prepared per instructions (I used milk in place of the water)
      4 ripe bananas, mashed with 1 teaspoon baking soda.
      Fold the banana mixture into the prepared cake mix.

      Put in a well greased and floured 9X13 pan.

      Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

      Cool completely

      Frosting

      1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding prepared with 1 cup cold milk. When set, mix in 1 8 oz. tub of Cool whip topping. Spread on cake, and refrigerate.

      I added l/4 cup sour cream when mixing the cake mix.
      Also added l/4 cup ground flax at the same time.

      This is really a very moist dessert. I am sure you could use several different cake mixes also. Spice cake comes to mind.

      Sliced bananas added on top of the frosting would be nice, when serving.

      Spread the word

          Always looking for recipes to use up my overripe bananas. This one looks good and uses a lot of bananas.
