🛒 What You’ll Need

For the Cake:

  • 1 box Yellow cake mix 📦✨
  • 1 box (3.4 oz) Instant vanilla pudding mix (the secret to that velvet texture!) 🥣
  • 3 Overripe bananas, mashed 🍌🍌🍌
  • 4 Large eggs 🥚
  • ½ cup Vegetable oil 🫒
  • ½ cup Water or milk 🥛
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract 🍦

For the Topping & Glaze:

  • 1 cup Powdered sugar ☁️
  • 2-3 tbsp Heavy cream or milk 🥛
  • Whipped topping or fresh whipped cream ☁️✨
  • Extra banana slices & Vanilla wafers, crushed 🍌🥨

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Heat your oven to 325°F. Grease and flour a Bundt pan thoroughly so your cake slides out like a dream! 🌡️🔥
  2. Mix the Magic: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, dry pudding mix, mashed bananas, eggs, oil, milk, and vanilla. 🥣🌪️✨
  3. Whip It: Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until the batter is smooth and smells amazing. 💪🍌
  4. Bake: Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. ⏲️📈🍰
  5. Cool Down: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes before flipping it onto a serving plate. Let it cool completely. ⏲️❄️
  6. The Glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar and milk until you have a thick, pourable glaze. Drizzle it generously over the cake, letting it drip down the sides as seen in the photo! 🍯🌊👑
  7. Decorate: Once the glaze is set, add dollops of whipped cream around the top. Garnish with fresh banana slices and vanilla wafers (whole and crushed) for that authentic pudding look! 🍌🥨☁️✨

🔥 Pro Tips:

  • The “Banana” Secret: The spottier the bananas, the better the flavor! Overripe bananas provide the most natural sweetness and moisture. 🍌🛡️💎
  • Pudding Power: Do not make the pudding beforehand! Adding the dry mix directly to the batter is what creates that incredible, melt-in-your-mouth crumb. 🥣🚫🎯
