Luscious, moist banana cake with chopped pecans and a little rum. The good news is it starts with a cake mix and it's quick and easy to make! I like to bake it in a bundt pan, but you could also make cupcakes or bake it in two cake pans for a layer cake, then just frost it with a simple vanilla glaze. Serves a crowd, great for a pot luck!
Ingredients
  • 1 french vanilla or white cake mix
  • 1 box of vanilla pudding
  • 2 ripe bananas, cut into small pieces
  • ½ cup of water
  • ¼ cup of vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 Tbs of Rum
  • ½ cup of chopped pecans
Glaze
  • 2 cups of powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons of hot water
  • 1½ teaspoons of vanilla paste or vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup of butter, melted
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Then, using an electric mixer, add the cake mix, pudding, bananas, water vegetable oil, eggs, and rum, beat until well combined, stir in the pecans by hand.
  2. Butter and flour a bundt pan and pour in the batter. Bake for 45 - 50 minutes or until a toothpick or skewer comes out clean.
  3. For the glaze, beat the powdered sugar, hot water, vanilla and the butter until smooth and creamy, then spread or drizzle on the cooled cake, you know what to do now! Enjoy!
