Frosted Banana Bars

• Batter
• 1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened
• 2 1/4 cups sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups sour cream
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 cups flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 3/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups ripe bananas (3 medium)
• Frosting
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 cups powder sugar

1. Batter: In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar.
2. Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla.
3. In separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture.
4. Stir in bananas (I squish mine in my hand as I put it in).
5. Spread in a greased cookie sheet, 17 x 12 x 1 inch baking pan.
6. Bake at 350 for 20- 25 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out clean from the middle.
7. Cool before frosting. Store in fridge.
8. Frosting: In mixing bowl beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla.
9. Gradually beat in enough powder sugar to achieve desired consistency. After 2 cups of powdered sugar I start tasting to see when it seems balanced with sugar and cream cheese.
