Description

Banana flip cake with two moist layers of cake surrounding a light and fluffy banana cream filling.

Ingredients

1 (15 1/4 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 (3 2/5 ounce) package instant banana pudding mix
2 1/4 cups milk, divided
4 large eggs
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons banana extract

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x13-inch pans.
2 Stir cake mix and pudding mix together in a bowl. Beat in 1 1/2 cups of milk and eggs until smooth. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
4 Cream butter and shortening in a large bowl with an electric mixer until combined. Gradually mix in sugar and flour. Beat in remaining 3/4 cup milk and banana extract until smooth.
5 Invert one cake onto a rectangular serving platter. Spread filling over top and cover with remaining cake layer. Serve immediately or keep chilled until 1/2 hour before serving.
