Just what I needed. I was making a layer cake, so I omitted the peanuts, mixed in 3/4 C. chocolate chips, put peanut butter frosting between the layers and then frosted the outside with sour cream chocolate frosting. Yum.

I love banana cake, and have tried so many recipes! This one is by far my family's favorite. I usually make a cream cheese frosting, but since this one has the nut/choc chip topping, it saves a step-super quick and easy.

I found this cake, dense and moist, which is a pleaser. I was disappointed with the topping. I used pecans as some other users had noted and found that the pecans kinda burnt, not bad, but a bit. Neither the chocolate chips, nor the sugar melted and I even covered it with foil in the last 20 minutes to prevent it from burning. If I make this again, I'll put the choco chips IN the batter and add some butter to the topping and cut it like you would the topping for an apple crisp. I also used 8 bananas and used coconut oil instead of margarine or butter. I used yogourt instead of sour cream and cut down on the sugar. The cake was perfect!!! The topping was a little off, all in all, still a crowd pleaser.

I submitted the only picture so far... as you can see, I made mine as cupcakes. I did had 1/2 tsp of salt to the main batter. It took almost 25 minutes for cupcakes. Keep an eye on these. Reading the reviews, I couldn't decide between the topping in the recipe, cream cheese or blueberries - so this way I could make a few of each. Poured into cupcake pan and topped. For the cream cheese I mixed in powdered sugar then pushed it into the batter so it was a filling in the center. My kid likes the chocolate topping best (w/o peanuts), my husband the cream cheese and I love the blueberry (I used fresh). The batter recipe is great, just experiment with what topping you like.

This was a great dessert. Next time I make it I may lower the sugar to 1 cup. I found it quite sweet. There is enough sweetness in the bananas to make up for it. My husband has already asked for it to take to work and share! I also iced it with a cream cheese icing. MMMmmmmm
