The exquisite and soft taste of chocolate banana cake can decorate not just a family tea party at the kitchen table, but also a luxurious banquet in honor of the holiday. Preparing this delicacy is very simple; it just takes a little time and the right ingredients. The dessert will captivate even a gourmet with its tenderness and pleasant fruity aftertaste.

The secret is in the cakes

To ensure that the taste is not cloying, but soft and melting, it is necessary to make the correct consistency of the dough. Some housewives additionally soak the finished cakes with rum syrup or milk to obtain softness and moisture. But in combination with sour cream they can simply crumble or turn into porridge.

To maintain the fine line between texture and cream layer, the cakes must be allowed to cool and lie in the refrigerator for several hours.

The fruity taste is achieved by adding banana pulp to the dough. You should choose overripe and already blackened fruits for the cakes; they are sweeter and easier to grind into a homogeneous mass without lumps. If you don’t have overripe bananas, you can use regular ones, first caramelizing them in a frying pan, and then grind them for dough.

To prepare you need:

Mix all dry ingredients except sugar in a large bowl. In another bowl, puree the bananas and add yogurt, mix everything until smooth. Beat butter and sugar with a mixer until creamy and fluffy. Separate the whites from the yolks and gradually add the latter, mix everything.

Then you need to combine the oil mixture with banana puree, mix and let it stand in the refrigerator. Then take it out and, mixing the dry mixture, make a molded dough. Beat the egg whites into foam with a mixer and add to the future cake layer. This will make the mixture light in consistency and fluffy.

Pour the dough into the mold and bake at a temperature of 190–200 degrees for approximately 45 minutes, using a dry skewer as a guide. Remove the finished cake from the mold and put it in the refrigerator after cooling.

Dessert cream

There are many options for making the cake softer and giving it a fruity taste. They depend not only on the baked cakes, but also on the cream. For a chocolate cake, the ideal option would be creamy delicate cream.

To prepare you need:

  • 250-300 ml heavy cream.
  • 50 ml thick sour cream.
  • 4 tablespoons of powdered sugar, but you can also use syrup.
  • 2 bananas.

Whip the cream with sour cream and sugar until thick and homogeneous. But do not beat it so that the cream does not curdle. Then cut the banana into small cubes and add to the resulting cream, mix everything.

The sour cream mass comes out dense and melts quickly. And together with cubes of ripe fruit - this is a real pleasure. This is a standard version of banana and chocolate cake cream. Also in confectionery products there are combinations of a creamy base with biscuit dough.

The disadvantages of the cream include:

  • High fat content and density. But you can dilute this by cutting fruit or adjusting the thickness of spreading on the surface of the cake.
  • Mawkishness. If you use high-fat cream and sour cream and add sugar, the oily texture will clog the receptors and dull the main taste of the dessert.

Cocoa based mass

An alternative to this would be chocolate banana cream for the cake. It is light and fragrant. It's easy to prepare. For the recipe you will need:

  • Extra dark chocolate bar.
  • Low-fat cream - 100 ml.
  • Butter - 20 gr.
  • Two bananas.
  • Mascarpone or grated cottage cheese - 100 gr.
  • Orange zest (teaspoon)
  • Cinnamon for flavor. A pinch is enough.

In a water bath, gradually melt the chocolate and add butter. When the mass is homogeneous, pour in a little cream and zest with cinnamon. Stir, let simmer and pour in the rest of the cream. The mixture should be dense and runny. Grind bananas into a pulp and mix with cottage cheese, add chocolate.

Thanks to the cheese, the cream will be airy and not as cloying as its sour cream counterpart. You can add bananas in cubes, but then the texture will be uneven and this will complicate the process of greasing the cakes.

If the mixture turns out to be liquid, then cocoa will help remove excess moisture. To do this, pour a little powder onto the cake and mix into the cream. There will be some bitter notes added to the taste, but the softness of the banana and the tenderness of the cottage cheese will easily neutralize them.

Banana version

Fruit cream is well suited for children's cakes and dietary treats. It is easy to perform; you can choose fruit compositions yourself depending on your taste preferences. Chocolate cake will be an interesting decoration for a home banquet.

To prepare the mass You will need several bananas, approximately 4-5 pieces. The fruits should not be overripe so that the cream lays evenly and does not saturate the fruit.

You will also need:

  • 250 ml low-fat cream.
  • 1 pack of fruit jelly.
  • Juice of half a lemon.
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar, you can use powder.
  • 50 grams of grated milk or white chocolate.

First, whip the cream and sugar to stiff peaks, add lemon juice and gradually pour in the cooled jelly. Stir and refrigerate for several hours. Then place peeled bananas on the cake, cover the cake with cream in an even layer and sprinkle with grated chocolate.

To make the delicacy soft and tasty, you need to put the finished dessert in the refrigerator for several hours. This will help the cakes to quickly absorb the mass and aroma of bananas.

Certainly, taste is important for a cake, but first the dessert must evoke desire on a visual level, so serving sweets is a key stage of the work.

The standard decoration for chocolate cake with banana cream is glaze. At home and without special equipment, it will not be possible to create a perfectly smooth surface, so you can place banana slices and sprinkle with cocoa powder so that the cake acquires a pleasant matte shade.

If you like the classic design, then the surface is not covered with cream, and the sides are smeared with melted chocolate and rubbed with nuts. This option is suitable if the top cake is not damaged or cracked. By the way, then the taste of the cake will change, because the top layer will not be soaked. This will give the dessert toughness.

It will be interesting decoration with grated chocolate. To do this, pour an even thick layer of grated chocolate over a surface greased with cream. If you choose black, there will be a beautiful contrast with the banana pieces attached to the sides of the sweet.

For those who like soft textures, jelly-shaped decorations are a good choice. To do this, the cake is first placed in the refrigerator for several hours, then taken out and the cooled fruit jelly is poured onto the surface. To prevent the cakes from absorbing moisture, place banana slices on them. The dessert will turn out not just tasty and airy, but also beautiful. The jelly should be poured into the mold so that it evenly covers the surface and does not spread all over the cake.

Can be decorated with chocolate drizzle.

I really liked the chocolate banana cake, the recipe is simple. It seems to me that baking and preparing the cream will take no more than an hour. I’ll definitely try this delicacy, I’ve made cakes without baking, but they taste bland and too sweet.

For my husband's birthday I made a chocolate banana cake, it turned out very tasty. Now I want to try it with jelly filling. I don’t use sour cream, I just make it with bananas, it tastes much better to me and my family loves it too.

Recipe 4: No-Bake Banana Cake with Cookies

Today I suggest you make a no-bake banana cake with cookies, sour cream and gelatin. Bananas are sold all year round, so you will always have this component of the cake. If you wish, you can replace bananas with any other fruit, but not very watery ones, since the liquid may prevent the gelatin cake from hardening. Choose fruit with firm and fleshy flesh. Fresh strawberries (not frozen), kiwi or seedless grapes are great. I wouldn’t recommend apples or pears, as they are a bit hard, and the cake should be tender and soft.

  • 350 grams of cookies,
  • 200 grams of bananas,
  • 25 grams of gelatin,
  • 180 grams of granulated sugar,
  • 450-500 grams of sour cream.

I break the cookies into medium pieces with clean hands. You can use the most common shortbread cookies: baked milk, butter, Pinocchio or cow. These are approximate types of cookies that are suitable.

I cut the bananas into thin rings and add them directly to the cookies, stirring lightly to get a more or less homogeneous base for the cake.

I dilute the gelatin with water according to the instructions: add hot water. For 25 grams of gelatin - 150 grams of water. This is enough to make it swell. I leave the gelatin in the water for 10-15 minutes until it swells.

I mix sugar and full-fat sour cream, beat with a mixer for 3-5 minutes, after which I add the swollen gelatin and continue to beat the cream.

Pour the whipped sour cream into the cookies and stir so that the sour cream soaks everything thoroughly.

I take a large pan and line it with food foil. I fill the mold with dough and put it in the refrigerator to harden. It’s convenient to prepare the cake in the evening, and in the morning I take it out of the refrigerator ready-made.

I turn the cake pan over and remove the film. It turns out to be a beautiful banana cake with cookies, it has the perfect shape.

I serve the finished cake to the table without a moment’s hesitation.

This is what a finished no-bake banana cake with cookies, sour cream and gelatin looks like in cross-section.

  • Sugar – 2 tbsp.
  • Half a lemon
  • Gelatin – 10 grams

Before we start preparing our sponge cake, let's do some preparation. To do this, you need to turn on the oven in advance and prepare the mold. If the mold is silicone, then you don't need to do anything with it. But the metal mold needs to be greased with oil and sprinkled with semolina or breadcrumbs.

Now you can start preparing the biscuit. Break the eggs into a separate bowl.

Pour sugar into the eggs and beat with a mixer until the mass increases in volume several times and the sugar is completely dissolved.

Add baking powder and soda to the flour and mix.

Pour the flour into the beaten eggs in small portions and stir until smooth.

Pour the dough into the mold and bake at 180C for 10 minutes. You can check the readiness of the cake with a wooden toothpick.

While our biscuit is baking, pour gelatin into a glass.

And fill it with water at room temperature, stir and set aside for swelling. It’s better to pour the gelatin in the same way, in advance.

When the biscuit is ready, remove it from the oven and leave it in the pan until it cools completely.

While the biscuit is cooling, you can prepare the filling from cottage cheese, banana and berries.

Grind the washed berries in a blender until smooth.

Then, grind the berries through a sieve.

Place cottage cheese in a separate bowl. Add sugar.

Grated berries and beat everything with a mixer.

At the end, add yogurt and beat the mixture again with a mixer. Yogurt should be natural, without additives or dyes. If this is not found, it can be replaced with sour cream or kefir. So, the berry mass is ready, now we start preparing the curd mass. The steps are the same as in preparing a soufflé from berries and cottage cheese.

Peel the banana, cut into pieces, pour lemon juice over them and grind in a blender.

Add cottage cheese, sugar, chopped bananas to a separate bowl and beat with a mixer.

Now add the yogurt and mix everything again with a mixer.

Place the gelatin in a water bath and stir constantly until it reaches a homogeneous liquid state so that the gelatin is completely dissolved. But don't boil!

Now, you need to let the gelatin cool a little and then pour half of the gelatin into the banana curd mixture and mix thoroughly.

Pour the second part of the gelatin into the curd and berry mass and mix everything thoroughly.

Place the biscuit in a springform pan.

And pour the curd mass on top in layers: 2-3 tbsp. banana curd mass, top with 2-3 tbsp. curd and berry mass and so on until the cream is completely gone.

Now we put our cake with cottage cheese, bananas and berries in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours so that it completely hardens.

Melt-in-your-mouth, fragrant, delicate chocolate sponge cake and sunny, ripe, sweet bananas - a divine combination that hardly anyone can resist. Treat yourself to chocolate madness, sweet chaos, and banana euphoria by making a chocolate banana cake using one of these recipes.

To please yourself and your loved ones with such a tempting delicacy, you don’t have to be a pastry chef and suffer at the stove baking cakes. Now you will learn how to make a no-bake chocolate banana cake in just 20 minutes.

You will need:

  • 500 g gingerbread (we use chocolate);
  • 380 g condensed milk (can be boiled);
  • 2 bananas;
  • 40 g whole milk;
  • 1.5 packs of butter;
  • 100 g regular sugar;
  • 40 g cocoa powder;
  • 50 g of nuts (any - peanuts, walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts).

Step-by-step preparation:

  1. We already have the base of the cake, gingerbread. There is no need to bake anything. Therefore, let’s immediately start preparing the cream for the layer. Take softened butter fat, beat it with a mixer, adding condensed milk with a tablespoon. We don’t pour out the whole jar at once, but in portions. We continue the process until we get a homogeneous fluffy mass.
  2. Using a thin sharp knife, cut each gingerbread lengthwise into two halves.
  3. Chop bananas into slices.
  4. Let's move on to assembling the cake. Lay out a layer of chocolate gingerbread, coat it with cream, then place an even row of bananas. Cover the top with a second gingerbread layer.
  5. We repeat the design of the product until the prepared components run out.
  6. The cake is assembled. All that remains is to decorate. Let's prepare the icing to cover the cake. To do this, place half a stick of butter in a saucepan, add 40 g of milk, add regular sugar and cocoa.
  7. Turn on low heat and, constantly stirring with a spoon, simmer it all. The main thing is not to let the mixture boil.
  8. Gently pour the shiny chocolate glaze over the top of the treat. You can finish the decoration here or sprinkle with more nuts, coconut shavings, etc.
  9. Now we put the cake in the refrigerator so that the glaze hardens and the cakes are soaked in cream. Serve after 4-5 hours.

If you don’t have time to wait for the cake to sit, take note of one trick. Before creating a layer of gingerbread, dip each one in warm milk or cocoa. Then the sponge cake will already be moist, and the cake will be ready to eat immediately after assembly.
