Banana Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
-
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork.
-
In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
-
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, mixing until just combined.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
While the bars are cooling, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and creamy.
-
Once the bars have cooled completely, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. Cut into bars and serve.
