Going Bananas for the Food Bloggers Bake Sale

dare supporto/give support



What a week! No need to go into the tumultuous details. I will save that for another day. Instead, let's chat about the Bake Sale!


By now, you are probably aware that there are Bake Sales happening all over the US tomorrow. And, bloggers near and far are scurrying around in their hometowns to finish baking, labeling and packaging. What are you making? Not able to bake? Okay! Just pop over to your local bake sale, say hello, and contribute. Not sure where a sale is being held? Click here to find a location. Just want to donate? Click Here.


Since recent events has caused me to want to go bananas, I thought these could be appropriate. Banana cupcakes with chocolate frosting, filled with banana custard.


Banana Cupcakes

4 oz butter
6 oz sugar
2 eggs
~ 2 large mashed ripe bananas
1 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp warm milk
1 tsp baking power
8 oz flour


Line two 12-cupcake tin with paper liners. Preheat oven to 325 F.


Mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda; set aside. Cream butter & sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then flour. Add mashed bananas and milk. Be sure not to over beat the batter.

Bake for 18-25 minutes. (Yields about 18)


*This batter will work as a VERY MOIST cake as well.
