Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter
54g
1.50 cups sugar
300g
2 eggs
100g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1 tsp buttermilk
5g
1/2 cup self-raising flour
72g
1 tsp baking soda
5g
1/2 cup cream cheese
120g
1/2 cup powdered sugar
80g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
2. Prepare the Cake Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1/4 cup butter and 1.5 cups sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
- Mix in 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1 tsp buttermilk.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 1/2 cup of self-raising flour and 1 tsp baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the mashed bananas until evenly distributed.
3. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
4. Prepare the Frosting:
- In a medium bowl, beat 1/2 cup cream cheese and 1/4 cup butter together until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup powdered sugar and continue to beat until smooth and fluffy.
- Mix in 1 tsp vanilla extract.
5. Frost the Cake: Once the cake is completely cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top.
6. Serve and Enjoy: Cut the cake into squares, serve, and enjoy your delicious banana cake with cream cheese frosting!

Tips:

- Ensure your bananas are ripe for maximum flavor and sweetness.

- For a lighter cake, sift your self-raising flour before using.

- Bring all your ingredients to room temperature before starting to ensure they mix evenly.

- Don't overmix the batter; mix just until the ingredients are incorporated to avoid a dense cake.

- Let the cake cool completely before applying the cream cheese frosting to prevent it from melting and sliding off.
