  • 3 cups confectioner's sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare two 9-inch nonstick cake pans by spraying them and lining the bottoms with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together mashed bananas and sugars until smooth. Add vegetable oil, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract; mix well.

  4. Divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake for 40–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Allow cakes to cool in pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

  7. Once cooled completely, frost the cakes generously with Nutella frosting.
