Bananas Foster Cupcakes

I don’t know about you, but I constantly have browning bananas. I mean CONSTANTLY. You would think that bananas are my number one thing to buy at the grocery store. My favorite breakfast used to be a sliced banana, smeared with a little peanut butter, a dollop of Weight Watchers Amaretto Cheesecake Yogurt, and a sprinkling of Grape Nuts cereal.



But then Weight Watchers stopped making Amaretto Cheesecake Yogurt. I tried to find a suitable substitute for it. The closest thing I could find was a Boston Cream Pie flavor. It was OK, but not the same. So instead of eating this breakfast nearly every day, I gradually ate it less and less frequently and now I can’t even remember the last time I ate it.

Ingredients

• 1 (15.25-ounce) box butter pecan cake mix, Betty Crocker
• 2 cups mashed banana, about 3 small
• 1 cup water

Frosting

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1/3 cup mashed banana
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 5 cups powdered sugar, sifted
• 1 tablespoon dark rum
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Praline Sauce

• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons dark rum
• 2 tablespoons praline liqueur
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 banana, sliced

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 and line 18 muffin cups with liners. Set aside.
