From Mrs. Fields Cookie Book
Cake:
2&1/4c. flour
1t. baking soda
1&1/4c. brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4c. butter
1/2c. sour cream
1&1/2c. mashed bananas (about 3 large bananas)
1 egg
1t. vanilla
3/4c. chocolate chips, melted
Frosting:
1/2c. heavy cream or whipped cream
2/3c. chocolate chips
In a medium bowl, combine flour and soda. Mix well with a wire whisk. Set aside. Blend sugar and butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer. Scrape sides of bowl. Add sour cream, banana, egg, and vanilla. Beat at medium speed until smooth. Add the flour mixture and blend at low speed until just combined. Do not overmix. Gently fold in melted chocolate and stir just until marbled pattern develops. Pour batter into a greased 8x8-inch baking pan. Bake at 350℉ for 40-45 min. or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan 15 min., then invert onto a rack and cool to room temperature.
To prepare frosting: Scald the cream in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Cover pan with lid and set aside. After about 15 min., stir frosting until it's smooth. Transfer to bowl and refrigerate until firm, about 20 min. Turn cake right side up onto a serving plate and frost liberally.
