New Recipe - Banana Bars

So I had the brown bananas sitting on my counter. I could make another batch of that banana bread that is good, or I could try something new. I decided -new it was. Banana Bars - they sound weird, I know, but they were actually good. And it gave me another reason to eat my absolute favorite thing - CREAM CHEESE FROSTING. I just love that stuff for some reason. Anyway, the bars were good, I would recommend them.

Also, just for the record - I do not like homemade marshmallows, and they make a huge mess!

Frosted Banana Bars
from allrecipes.com

½ cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (I used three ripe bananas)
Frosting (use store-bought cream cheese frosting, but homemade is always better!)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 10 x 15 inch jellyroll pan or one 9X13 pan and an additional 8X8 pan. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the sour cream and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; stir into the batter. Finally, mix in the mashed banana. Spread evenly into the prepared pan(s). Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow bars to cool completely before frosting.
