To make this Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting, you will need the following ingredients:

For the cake:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup buttermilk

For the cream cheese frosting:

- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and mashed bananas. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until the frosting is thick and fluffy.
Once the cake has cooled completely, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. Serve and enjoy!
