You’ll need: 10 inch springform cake pan, greased

Ingredients
180g Butter, softened
190g Caster Sugar
3 Eggs
3 ripped bananas, mashed
340g Plain Flour
1½ tsp bicarbonate soda dissolved in 3 tsp hot milk
1½ tsp baking powder

METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
Put the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl, and beat with a wooden spoon or electric whisk until all the sugar has been incorporated and the mixture is pale.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each addition to make sure it’s well incorporated.
Add the mashed bananas, then the dissolved soda mixture and mix well.
Add the flour and baking powder, folding it all in with a spoon until you have a homogeneous mixture. Fold in the chocolate.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared cake pan and bake for 40 minutes, or until skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan.
Just before you are ready to serve, beat the cream to soft peaks and spread over the top of the cooled cake.
Decorate with greated and shaved chocolate.
