6 servings
Servings4
15.25 oz. yellow cake mix
1/2 cup salted butter, melted
2 bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
3/4 cup water
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, divided
8 oz. cream cheese (room temperature)
1/2 cup salted butter (room temperature)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 Tbsp. milk
1

In a large bowl, add the cake mix, melted butter, mashed bananas, water, vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk until combined, leaving a few lumps of cake mix.

2

Add about 3/4 of the chopped walnuts and stir again, saving some for topping the frosting.

3

Spray the slow cooker very well with non-stick spray.

4

Add the batter to the slow cooker and smooth out to a flat layer.

5

Cover and cook on HIGH for 2.5 hours, without opening the lid during cooking time.

6

Once cooking time is done, remove the insert from the heating unit and set it on a cooling rack to cool completely.

7

To speed up cooling, place the ceramic insert in the fridge after it isn't piping hot.

8

Once cooled, make the frosting by blending together the cream cheese and butter until combined.

9

Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk; blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.

10

Spread the frosting on the cooled cake and sprinkle with reserved walnuts. Slice and serve.
