Ingredients Banana Cake
2 ripe medium bananas
2 eggs
1⁄3 cup vegetable oil
1 pkg Epicure Sweet Banana Bread & Muffin Mix
Cream Cheese Icing
1 pkg cream cheese, softened
4 tbsp butter, softened
1⁄2 tsp Epicure Cinnamon (Ground)
1 cup icing sugar
Cookware
Preparation Banana Cake
Generously oil Epicure Round Pan with a basting brush and place on sheet pan.
In a large bowl, mash bananas; they should measure about 3⁄4 cup. Add eggs and oil; whisk to mix. Stir in mix. Cover for 20 minutes.
Scrape batter into pan and smooth top.
Bake for 20 - 25 minutes in the oven at 350 or until toothpick comes out clean.
Cool on wire racks.
Cream Cheese Icing
In a bowl, use an electric mixer or wooden spoon to beat cream cheese with butter until smooth. Beat in cinnamon.
Beat in icing sugar, one spoonful at a time, until smooth. If making ahead, cover and refrigerate up to 5 days.
Assembly
On a large plate, cut banana cake in half, place icing on top of cake (both halves) and stick together in half moon shape.
2. On one side of cake, cut out a small triangle to form a head for your bunny. Use the cutout for a bunny tail.
3. Frost cake with remaining icing and decorate with ears, eyes, whiskers and Easter decorations (we used sprinkles, a strawberry nose and some homemade construction paper ears).
