When I saw this recipe on
Oh Bite It I knew it had to be made.
I don't care what time of year it is, we all need a gooey green cake in our lives!
We brought this to a friend's house for a party, and it was certainly a conversation starter!
The ripe banana is not a powerful flavor, but it adds so much moistness, especially when dealing with a boxed cake mix.
I did mine in a 9 x 13 (easier to transport), but I think two 9 inch rounds with the frosting between the layers would be pretty cool too.
Ingredients:
1 Box yellow or white cake mix
(additional ingredients required per cake box)
2 Ripe bananas
Green food coloring
Frosting (white or green)
Chocolate sprinkles
Directions:
1. Mix cake batter per box instructions
