Rich chocolate cakes topped with fluffy peanut butter frosting, chocolate ganache and fresh banana slices. What could be more perfect? Well… these Chocolate Banana Cake Batter Cupcakes were pretty incredible actually. And if you’re craving banana bread instead of a cupcake, I have THE BEST Banana Bread Recipe.
The Story:
Someone likened me unto a banana the other day.
“You’re getting older and maybe not looking as good, but really you’re becoming much better and more ‘flavorful.’ Those young bananas are cute and pretty, but everyone would much rather eat an older one. You’re a banana, Lizzy!”
Uhhh… thanks?
Ingredients
Directions
Have the Girl Scouts stopped by your house yet? Make sure to make my Thin Mint Cupcakes when you get your box of Thin Mints!! Or if you’re feeling daring, give the Chocolate Pistachio Cupcakes a try!
For some reason, cake mixes are hard to find here in Manila. I have a devil’s food cake recipe. Can I jusr add mashed bananas to make the cupcakes?
Replace part of the liquid (usually it’s milk) with mashed banana!
Have you tried with other cake mixes, say yellow or spice cake? This sounds AMAZING, but my odd fiance isn’t a chocolate fan (crazy, I know!)
Yellow cake mix is amazing with it 🙂
lol love the story! ;D
hahaha! No way, you still look great on the outside!! And you definitely don’t have soft brown spots!! 😉 These look delicious, as always!
Love the story haha! These cupcakes look amazing! I love your pictures! 🙂
