Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
Step 6: Bake
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before frosting.
🎂 Mascarpone Frosting Magic
While the cake cools, whip up the light and creamy mascarpone frosting.
In a chilled mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with a hand mixer until the frosting becomes thick and spreadable—don’t overbeat or it can curdle.
Once the cake is completely cooled, spread the frosting generously over the top. Garnish with banana slices, a drizzle of caramel, or a sprinkle of nuts for extra flair.
