Banana Poke Cake

I can honestly say this is the first time I have EVER baked a cake from scratch.  I was lazy & always just used box mix.  So this was definitely a gamble for me.  Especially since I made the recipe myself.  That gamble paid off because this cake turned out better than I could of hoped!

What you need:

• 2 eggs
• 3/4 C butter melted
• 6 bananas
• 3/4 C sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 3/4 C milk
• 2 C flour
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp nutmeg
• 1 container of cool-whip
• banana instant pudding mix
• 2 C milk (for the pudding)

What to do:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Smash 3 of the bananas in a medium bowl.
3. Mix in the eggs, milk, & butter.
4. In a large bowl combine the sugar, baking soda, flour, cinnamon, & nutmeg.
5. Pour the banana mixture into the dry ingredients.  Mix until well combined.
6. Pour into a 8 X 13 cake pan.  Bake for 25 minutes.
7. Allow the cake to cool.  Once cool poke holes about half way through the cake.
   
8. In a medium bowl mix the pudding mix with the 2 cups of milk.
9. Pour over the cake.
10. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until set.
11. Cover with cool-whip & sliced bananas.
    
12. Keep refrigerated.

ENJOY!!!!
