Twisted Chocolate Banana Cake

The very first layered cake that I've ever baked was this Chocolate Banana Cake. It tastes exactly or relatively close to Secret Recipe's Chocolate Banana Cake. It's one of my personal favourties that I can hardly get sick of. However, the cake's relatively rich and decadent chocolate cake. So this time round for Ben's family's birthday celebration, I suggested a plain sponge cake to go with the cake in place of a chocolate sponge. This way, the cake is less sweet and less rich. I name this Twisted Chocolate Banana Cake.

This cake will take about 3 hours to bake and assemble and ranks 4/5 in terms of difficulty.

Cynthia's Chocolate Banana Cake

This Cynthia's Chocolate Banana Cake is one of my personal favourites and it's almost been fail-proof for me every time I make it. It's similar to Secret Recipe's version of the Chocolate Banana Cake just that I prefer to use dark chocolate in my version. I made 2 9-inch and 1 4.5-inch cake on Friday for various occasions over the weekend and I took 6 hours, which is rather speedy judging from the fact that my first attempt took me 4 hours! (: 

I'm just really glad that it was a big hit for many! (: That's one of the joy in baking for people I love. 

This recipe is IMAGE INTENSIVE! (:
