11 - Banana Cake
(by Aunt Ada [Herman] Miller)
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1 stick Parkay margarine
2 eggs
4 TBSP 2% milk
1 cup of mashed bananas (bananas should be VERY ripe)
2 tsp. Calumet baking powder
1 tsp. Arm & Hammer baking soda
1 tsp. imitation vanilla
2 cups of sifted all-purpose flour (measure before sifting)
In mixer, use large mixing bowl. Beat margarine, sugar, and eggs. Add
milk, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla. Add mashed bananas and
flour. Beat until smooth (about 3 minutes).
Pour batter in a greased and floured long cake pan (13 x 9 x 2). Bake
at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Test with toothpick for doneness. If
toothpick comes out clean, it's done. If not, bake a few more minutes
and retest. After cooling, add icing. Recipe for icing:
1/2 box Domino's Powdered Sugar (1 lb. size)
1 stick Parkay margarine
2 tsp imitation vanilla
1.5 TBSP milk
Feed in mixer. The longer you beat it the creamier it gets.
