What to do with overripe bananas????

I know that we all have had extra bananas laying around that become overripe and we don't know what to do with them.  So I found this yummy recipe, which everyone at work loved.  So I decided to change up my recipe post today and share a baked good recipe.

Banana Cake

1/2 cup softened butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium bananas)
1 cup sour cream

Frosting:
1/3 cup softened butter
2 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2-3 tbsp milk

1.  In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.  Stir in vanilla.  Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with bananas and sour cream, beating well after each addition.
2.  Pour into a greased 9x13 baking pan.  Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cool completely.
3.  For the frosting, in a small bowl, beat butter and confectioners' sugar and add milk to establish a creamy mixture.  Top cake and enjoy.

I hope you enjoy this cake as much as my co-workers did.

See you tomorrow.
