I made this today using a Butter Recipe Chocolate cake mix. It was delish! I was pressed for time so I cheated and frosted it with a ready-made fudge frosting mixed with a jar of marshmallow fluff. I’m looking forward to trying this as you’ve got it in the recipe – especially the banana cream cheese frosting!
