Ingredients
For the Bread:
1/2 cup Land O Lakes butter, softened
1/2 cup Domino brown sugar
1/2 cup Domino granulated sugar
2 large Eggland’s Best eggs
1 cup ripe banana, mashed
1/2 cup Daisy sour cream
1 tablespoon McCormick pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups Gold Medal all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Hershey’s unsweetened dark cocoa powder
1 teaspoon Arm & Hammer baking soda
1/2 teaspoon Morton salt
1 1/2 cups Oreo cookie chunks
For the Frosting:
1/4 cup Land O Lakes butter, softened
1 cup Domino powdered sugar
1 tablespoon Borden milk
1 Oreo, crushed
Directions
- Beat the butter and sugars until creamy. Add the eggs, banana, sour cream, and vanilla and beat again.
- Stir together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add to the butter mixture until everything has been mixed in. Do not over mix the batter. Stir in the cookie chunks gently.
- Spread the batter in a greased 9×5 bread pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Remove from the oven and let cool 15 minutes in the pan, and then flip out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Frosting:
- Beat the butter and sugar until creamy. Add the milk and beat until smooth. Spread on top of the cooled bread. Top with the cookie crumbs.
Quick Tip: Not ready to make banana bread even though your bananas are ripe? Peel them and seal in a Ziploc bag before tossing in the freezer for later.
