Melissa Clark’s Banana Snacking Cake

This tender and moist cake is packed with banana flavor and topped off with an irresistibly smooth cream cheese frosting – the ideal snack or dessert!

Snacking cakes are lighter versions of sheet cake with a powdered sugar frosting. They typically use ingredients that make them easier to consume than bars, brownies and blondies (like flourless chocolate cake). This banana snacking cake has the texture of banana bread but more intense flavor; topped off with an irresistibly sticky caramel glaze studded with crunchy flakes of sea salt. This glaze is composed of brown sugar, butter heavy cream and salt; adding subtle yet satisfying salt gives it added dimension.

Banana recipes have become so popular lately, you can find plenty of them online – but this one stands out for its delicious taste.
