In the first column is "Panda's Party Cake." Sorry, I haven't made that one. But may give you some ideas!

This is the one I made for Buck's birthday. It's from the Three Dog Bakery book. I didn't have dried banana so I just skipped that. I sprinkled carob powder on top just because


Let 'Em Eat Cake
2 cups water
1/4 cup mashed banana
1/8 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 tablespoons honey
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup dried banana
1/2 tablespoon baking powder

Frosting:
8 ounces low-fat cream cheese
3 teaspoons carob powder
1 teaspoon vanilla

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a bowl, mix together water, bananas, vanilla, egg and honey.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, dried bananas and baking powder. Mix thoroughly.
- Add wet ingredients to dry and mix well.
- Pour into an 8-inch greased cake pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- To make the frosting, beat all ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth.
- Spread over the cake and decorate it with pieces of crushed dried banana.
- Store in an airtight container.



I didn't get a chance to make it for Nova's birthday yesterday but I'm planning on making it tonight.
