Banana-Nog Cake Recipe

Banana-Nog Cake Recipe

  • Cake:
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup margarine
  • 2 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups eggnog
  • 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas
  • Frosting:
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch pan.
  2. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Beat margarine and white sugar together in a separate bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated; stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Stir butter mixture into flour mixture, alternating with eggnog, until well combined. Fold in bananas. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack, about 1 hour.
  4. Beat butter and cream cheese together in a bowl until creamy and smooth; beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Add confectioners' sugar; beat on medium-low speed with an electric hand mixer until combined. Spread frosting onto cooled cake.
