Banana Chocolate Cake

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 25 min. + cooling YIELD: 12 servings.
This light-as-air chocolate cake has a yummy banana flavor. It’s scrumptious as is, but you can also dress it up with nuts or light frostings. —Tina Bellows, Racine, Wisconsin

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • Sugar substitute equivalent to 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
