Ingredients

3 large overripe ripe Bananas
3/4 cup Unsalted Butter (at room temperature)
3/4 cup Sugar
1/2 cup packed Brown Sugar
3 large Eggs (at room temperature)
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 cups Greek Yogurt (at room temperature)
3 cups All-Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon ground Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 1/2 teaspoons semi sweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 pound Chocolate Chips
1 cup Heavy Cream

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350. Grease and line a 9X13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Peel the bananas and add them to a large bowl. Use a fork to lightly mash the bananas.
Add butter and sugar to the bowl and lightly beat with a hand mixer till light and creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat till combined.
Pour in the greek yogurt and beat the mixture. It'll start looking a little grainy but don't worry everything will come together.
Place a sieve on top of the bowl and add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Sieve it into the bowl, and mix the entire mixture with a spatula till just combined. Mix in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake for 50 minutes or till a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely.
Meanwhile, heat the heavy cream for a minute or so in the microwave till hot but not boiling. Pour it over the chocolate chips and let it sit for a minute. Whisk the chocolate and cream together till smooth.
Pour it over the cake and spread it evenly on the cake. Refrigerate till ready to serve. If the cake is cold, let it sit outside for 15 minute to let it come to room temperature before serving.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

2 c granulated white sugar
1 3/4 c all purpose flour
3/4 c unsweetened cocoa powder (regular or dutch processed) (sifted)
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 c mashed ripe bananas (about 2 medium sized bananas)
1 c warm water
1/2 c milk
2 large eggs
1/2 c corn, sunfower or canola oil ( or other flavorless oil, if u want to olive oil, make sure light olive oil)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
CHOCOLATE GANACHE FROSTING :
8 oz semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, cut into small pieces
3/4 c heavy whipping cream
1 Tbsp unsalted butter

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and place rack in the center of the oven. Butter, or spray with a non stick vegetable spray, a 9 x 13 inch (23 x 33 cm) pan. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder (sifted), baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In another large bowl, whisk together the eggs, mashed bananas, water, milk, oil, and vanilla extract.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir, or whisk, until combined. You will notice that the batter is quite thin. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
5. Remove from oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 30mins to 1 hr. when completely cooled, frost with the ganache
6. Chocolate ganache: Place the chopped chocolate in a medium sized stainless steel, or heatproof bowl. Set aside. Heat the cream and butter in a medium sized saucepan over medium heat (can also be heated in the microwave). Bring just to a boil. Immediately pour the boiling cream over the chocolate and allow to stand for 5 minutes. Stir until smooth. When Ganache has completely cooled, beat until soft and fluffy (I use a wire whisk). Then spread the frosting on top of the cake.
