I was visiting my some of my favourite blog, jotting down dates ( LOL, if I have any ) and planning for my orders when I stumble upon this not very nice looking cake , but it sure sound yummy. I have to agree with the others, this is not one of the gorgeous looking cake, but it sure taste yummy . Thank you kitchen flavours for posting the pic of the cake which tempted me to try it. Well, I really love bananas and no one is gonna stop me from baking this. Heehee.............. Believe it or not , I am baking it right now and mom is waiting ....
This is my first time joining
Avid Baker's Challenge ( ABC ) and I feel kind of excited and nervous at the same time.In 2012, the ABC Bakers will be baking from
The Weekend Baker by
Abby Dodge I do not own any bundt pan. I was rushing to the bakery supply store to look for the pan , but was disappointed to be told that they have sold out the pan. I was a bit on the down side when I heard this. Well maybe god heard me .. Heehee.. The lady boss was so kind and generous to lend me her own bundt pan. That really make my day . ;)
I really can't wait to taste the cake. The moment I remove the cake from the oven , it smells so good . My daughter Natalie nearly can't wait to spoon the cake out of the pan. Gosh. I was fast enough to stop her from doing so .
I have made a few changes to the original recipe to suit my taste bud. First I have reduce the sugar to 1/2 cup as the original recipe calls for 1 1/4 cup of sugar . Using an electric mixer, I cream the butter and sugar till light and fluffy before adding in the vanilla extract and banana. Check out the colour of my Nut-Crusted Chocolate-Banana Swirl Cake . I prefer the not so "tanned " version of this cake ( thats how I describe dark colour cake , LOL) . As so I did not swirl the chocolate till the bottom , after pouring half the batter into the pan, I scoop the melted chocolate into the pan and swirl lightly before adding the balance of the batter . The results : A Fair Looking Nut-Crusted Chocolate-Banana Swirl Cake .. Yummy !!!
Please don't underestimate this piece of bake goodies . This is really one of the yummiest banana cake I ever tasted. I can't resist eating even when its still warm. Heehee.......
This cake texture is real fluffy, even Ryan can't resist it ......
