Banana Cake

Found this on Jill Savage's blog today and can't wait to try it!!!

Savage Family Banana Cake Recipe

2-1/4 c. flour
2-1/2 t. baking powder
½ t. baking soda
½ t. salt
¼ c. sugar
½ c. Crisco
3 or 4 very ripe bananas
1 t. vanilla
2 eggs
½ c. buttermilk or sour milk (we do ½ c. milk and stir in 1 tsp of vinegar to make it sour)

Bake in greased and floured 9 x 13 pan until surface springs back gently when pressed with fingers (usually about 40 minutes—the cake may not be brown in color—it may still have a very light color to it)

Icing (this is the best part!)
1/3 c. soft butter or margarine
3-1/2 c. powdered sugar
3 or 4 Tbsp. milk
1-1/2 t vanilla
¼ t. almond extract

Blend together and frost on cooled cake.

Enjoy!
