Banana Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting

*This is without the frosting

This is a sweet treat and a great way to use up your old bananas! GO Bananas!

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 Cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
2 Cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup mashed ripe bananas


1. Preheat oven to 350*. Grease a 10 X15 inch jellyroll pan.

2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the sour cream and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt: stir into the batter. Finally, mix in the mashed banana. Spread evenly into a prepared pan.

3. Bake for 20 -25 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow bars to cool completely before frosting with the cream cheese frosting.
