Monkey Squares | |
1 ½ cups | sugar |
1 cup | sour cream |
½ cup | butter, softened |
2 | eggs |
1 ¾ cups (3 or 4) | ripe bananas, mashed |
2 teaspoons | vanilla |
2 cups | flour |
1 teaspoon | baking soda |
¾ teaspoon | salt |
½ cup | chopped walnuts,, (optional) |
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease and flour 10x15 jelly roll pan. Beat first four ingredients until creamy. Blend in bananas and vanilla one minute. Add dry ingredients and blend one minute. Stir in nuts and spread in pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Cool and frost with Browned Butter Frosting (recipe below). Banana bread option: instead of spreading into jelly roll pan, this recipe will make about two regular loaves of banana bread, or about four small loaves. Regular loaves bake about 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Small loaves will bake about 25 minutes on 350. Browned Butter Frosting | |
½ cup | butter |
4 cups | powdered sugar |
1 ½ teaspoons | vanilla |
about 3 tablespoons | milk |
half and half, alternative |
Heat butter in saucepan over medium heat past the melting point until it boiling, and a delicate brown. Remove from the heat and immediately add the remaining ingredients. This should be thicker than a glaze and thinner than frosting. Using a spatula smooth over the top of the Monkey Squares immediately. The frosting will be easier to spread once it's on the warm bread.
