Chocolate Bottom Banana Cake




I am disappointed that my Chocolate Bottom Banana Squares turned out to be a Chocolate Banana Cake.....😅

Arrrgh....how could I forgot to separate the batter into 2 portion before I added in the cocoa powder.......However  the cake texture is soft, moist & flavourful. But....if I did it right, then the taste of the banana in the cake will be more prominent. ^ ^


Here is the recipe :
Chocolate Bottom Banana Squares
110g butter (softened) 
190g sugar 
1 egg (lightly beaten)
1 tsp vanilla
3 medium ripe bananas (mashed) 
210g plain flour 
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
15g cocoa powder 
100g chocolate chips

Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 180 ºC and prepared a 9” Square pan, greased and lined.
  2. Cream butter and sugar till light and fluffy. 
  3. Drizzle in the beaten eggs, vanilla and mashed bananas, beating thoroughly.
  4. Sieve in the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt to the creamed mixture in above step and mix it well.
  5. Divide the batter into half. Add the cocoa powder to one portion of the batter. Spread that portion in the bottom of a greased 9inch square baking tin. 
  6. Spread the remaining plain batter on top the cocoa batter, swirl gently with a knife and sprinkle top with chocolate chips.
  7. Bake for about 30 minutes or test batter done with a toothpick or fork. 
  8. Cool and cut into squares to serve.

Enjoy Baking!
