It's episode 4 of Show Me the Yummy and today we are baking.
Mmmmm.
What are we doing Trevor?
We're making a chocolate peanut butter banana cake.
Oh yeah, it's gonna blow your mind.
Alright, we're going to start off by mixing the dry ingredients together.
So, right here I've got flour cinnamon, I've got some salt and then baking soda.
I'm gonna mix all of those together.
Yup, and while he does that I'm going to start by creaming together some room temperature
butter, some granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
And now I'm just going to let that cream for about two minutes.
Now we're going to stop and scrape down the bowl and then I'm going to get two room temperature
eggs in there.
Now the really important thing to remember is anytime you're incorporating ingredients
you always want to make sure that they're the same temperature.
That way they'll incorporate better.
Okay, now we're gonna let these mix for about 30 seconds.
Next up we're going to add some greek yogurt and then also just a splash of vanilla.
Once we get these in there we're just going to let them mix for a couple seconds until
they're incorporated.
Now I'm going to mix in our dry ingredients.
And while she does that I'm going to start mashing up bananas until we have a cup of
bananas, it's probably about two bananas.
Yup.
Alright, I've got my cup of bananas.
Yup.
Mashed, smashed.
Smashed bananas.
I'm just going to put them right in here.
The batter is done so now all we have to do is put it in our greased 9x13 inch pan.
I pour well I've been told.
Now I'm just using my spatula to evenly smooth out the batter.
And I am eating the batter off of my fingers, for me equally as important.
And now we're bring this and put it into the oven at 350 degrees for how long?
About 30 minutes, but we'll check on it after 30 minutes and see how it looks.
Frosting time!
So excited!
This is the best part because it's a peanut butter chocolate cream cheese frosting.
I'm going to start with some room temperature cream cheese and now we have room temperature
butter.
And once that's in there we're just going to cream that for the next two minutes.
Now the cream cheese and butter is creamy deliciousness and HEY, stop it!
What?
Trevor has a serious peanut butter addiction.
I need to make sure the peanut butter is okay.
Do you know how often somebody gets injured by eating...
How many?
It happens.
Well, if there's any left next we're going to add the creamy peanut butter.
And now heavy cream.
For your health.
And vanilla.
We are just going to cream that together.
That looks incredible and last but not least we're gonna add in our powdered sugar and
our cocoa powder.
Perfect.
And we're going to add in just a pinch of salt.
BAM!
Bam.
To counter balance the sweetness.
Is that trademarked?
Can we say that?
I don't know.
Yeah, we can say that.
That's it, we're done.
We just made the most delicious peanut butter chocolate cream cheese frosting.
Time to clean up.
Oh yeah, me too.
Mmmm.
You're not cleaning.
Frosting is done, the cake is fresh out of the oven and it smells amazing.
Now you should let it cool off before frosting it but because we are impatient people.
And really, really, hungry.
And really, really hungry.
It's time for...
Taste Test!
Mmmmm.
I feel like that I do that in every episode but, I mean, this takes the cake.
Get it?
It's moist, it's flavorful, banana-ey, it tastes like a melted reeces peanut butter
cup on cake.
Oh my gosh, yes!
That's kinda what it tastes like.
What really beats reeces?
It's pretty amazing, you need to make this, your life will be a better place because of
it.
It will.
