cake release
9x13-inch baking pan
Ingredients
⅔
cup
peanut butter
⅔
cup
brown sugar
5
tablespoons
butter
salted or unsalted
2
large
eggs
1 and ½
cup
banana
very ripe, mashed
⅔
cup
all-purpose flour
½
teaspoon
baking soda
1
cup
Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
4
tablespoon
wheat germ
FOR CAKE BALLS
32-
ounce
candy coating
16-
ounce
frosting
canned or homemade
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Coat a
9x13 pan
with cake release
In a mixing bowl, beat peanut butter, brown sugar, and butter until smooth and fluffy.
I find an electric mixer works best for this.
Add the egg and vanilla, stir until combined.
Stir in the banana.
Add the oats, flour, wheat germ and baking soda until completely combined.
Spread in prepared pan.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes until set and lightly browned.
Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
FOR CAKE BALLS
Crumble bread in a large bowl, stir in frosting until cake is moist with frosting and sticks together easily.
Scoop cake into balls. I use a
1-inch spring release scoop
for this.
Place balls on a sheet of waxed paper. I use an
8x12 inch casserole dish
that will fit in my freezer and place the waxed paper in it.
Freeze for 20 to 30 minutes or refrigerate an hour.
You'll want the balls firm; they're easier to dip in the chocolate cold.
Melt chocolate at 30-second intervals in microwave. Stir until smooth.
Using 2 forks or skewer, dip each ball in chocolate. Tap on side of bowl to allow excess chocolate to drip off.
Place on waxed paper or
parchment paper
to dry completely.
