I made cupcakes unstead of cake and my kids loved them. No need for frosting, these are so moist.

Wonderful! I do agree with the others that you need to remember to make the cake mix per the box directions and the add all the others included in the recipe. This is the most moist cake I have ever had and one of the tastiest. Def. will make again! I used the banana icing recipe here on AllRecipes and it made it to die for!

I accidently grabed a box of brownie mix, when it was all mixed up it was very thin, so I added a half cup of flour and it seemed thick enough. The result is that it taste even better with a brownie mix than a cake mix, in our opinion

...I don't understand why some people are saying this recipe is dry....maybe you forgot to add the ingredients on the back of the box ALONG with the ingredients here. I'm only 12 years old and I made this recipe. It turned out great! My family loved it and I have it to my teachers and friends. They said that it tasted really good. My best friend is a *really* picky eater and she had two slices! I would definitely make this recipe again.

I always put ripe bananas in the freezer to use later. This is a good recipe for that purpose! I did use 1/2 cup water to moisten up the recipe a bit.

There was so much discussion on this recipe, I almost didn't make it. I followed the recipe as written, The batter didn't seem too thick. I watched the cake very closly as not to over bake. To my amazement, the cake was very dry. The only saving grace was the whipped cream and banana filling. I would not bake this cake again.

I had a box of reduced sugar devils food cake mix in the cupboard that I was afraid to use....so I thought this might just add just the right thing to cover up any after taste it may have. Hubby (who is the pickiest eater alive) liked it! Ate 2 pieces the first night. I frosted it with regular canned chocolate frosting....I thought it was okay. Don't know if I'd make it again...but overall not a bad recipe.

We all loved this cake, particularly on the second day. It was very moist and a good blend of banana and chocolate - one didn't outdo the other. I used the bananas, oil and eggs as stated and then added water to make the amount liquid equal what the box called for. Good cake!

Very good, but you do have to make sure that you get enough liquids into the mixture.. follow your cake box instructions. Mine said that I would need 1/2 cup oil (which I used), 3 eggs (same as this recipe), and 1 1/4 cups water. So, I mashed 3 bananas, poured them into a measuring cup, and then filled up with water to make the 1 1/4 cups. Otherwise, I think it would have been a little dry. I also poured in about 1 cup of mini choc chips, and then made it into 22 muffins rather than a cake. They took 19 minutes to bake in my oven. No icing needed. They were light and airy, but just moist enough. Delicious!

I made the cake according to package directions and then added the extra eggs, oil, and bananas. It was WONDERFULLY moist, and extra yummy with Peanut Butter Frosting from this site. Heaven!

Delicious. Not too "banana-y" and great chocolate flavor. A great way to get rid of ripe bananas without always making banana bread!

Very interesting flavor; I added the cup of bananas and then since the box needed a cup and a third of water, I added an additional 1/3 c water to the cake. It turned out very well, so I am going to guess that the moisture level of the cake depends on the amount of water the box recipe calls for. I also added 1/2 a pkg of dark choc chips and frosted it with my own concoction of a chocolate cream cheese frosting. Yummy!

Moist, wonderful cake. I made a two layer round cake and it worked perfectly. Somebody's review said to make the recipe on the cake box and then add the rest of the ingredients from the online recipe -- no, no, no.... only add the ingredients that are listed in the recipe... not the cake box. Served at a birthday party with 35 people and it received rave reviews. Can't go wrong with this one.

This was a dry cake--even my husband said that. Still eating on it. In order to get rid of it pouring a little milk over it isn't so bad. Unless it's really bad, we never throw anything out.

Delicious. My family - especially my husband loved this moist yummy cake. The reason the other user probably found it dry (and what I found a bit confusing at first) is because she probably only added the oil and eggs mentioned above. You need to add everything the back of the chocolate cake mix says to add plus the additional oil and eggs with the bananas. Yummy!
