Our family celebrates birthday’s with lots and lots of sweets.  My greatest contribution to this weekend’s birthday festivities was Mike’s birthday cake – my own variation of a super moist bundt cake recipe that I found on WeightWatchers.com years and years ago.  It is a delicious and easy cake as-is, but I of course like to make changes.  What follows is my take on the original recipe with help from my very own super-hero Batman (who could not have been more thrilled to make a birthday cake for daddy!) :).

What You Need

Cooking Spray
Flour for dusting pan
18.5 oz unprepared yellow cake mix
1 package 3.4 oz instant banana cream dry pudding mix
8 oz fat free egg substitute
8 oz fat free sour cream
3/4 cup water
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips
2 ripe bananas
1 can of whipped cream cheese frosting
1 tube of decorating frosting/icing

How to Make It

1. Preheat oven to 350F.  Coat a 12-cup bundt pan with cooking spray, dust the inside of the pan with flour and set aside.
2. Combine cake mix, pudding mix, egg substitute, sour cream, water, oil and vanilla in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer.
3. Mash bananas with a fork.  Fold in bananas and chocolate chips.
4. Pour batter into prepared pan and level the surface.
5. Bake until a wooden pick inserted near the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.  Allow to cool in pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes, invert cake onto rack and cool completely.
6. Frost with cream cheese frosting and decorate with icing as desired.
