 This recipe came from Epicurious and it's fantastic! It has butter and sour cream in it and it's very easy to make. It came with a sour cream frosting but I opted to just put a cream cheese frosting on it. I read the reviews on the cake from Epicurious and a lot of the people suggested folding the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just till combined instead of mixing with a mixer so that's what I did. I guarantee if you make this you'll never have to look for another banana cake recipe again!!
