INSTRUCTIONS






  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and spray all inside surfaces
    of a 16 cup nonstick tube pan with nonstick cooking spray WITH FLOUR or grease
    and flour the inside of your pan. Set aside.*

  2. Cinnamon Walnut Streusel: Add walnuts to your food processor
    and pulse 3 times. Add flour, brown sugar and cinnamon and pulse a few times to
    combine. Sprinkle cold butter over top and pulse until the walnuts are chopped
    and the mixture resembles small pebbles. (You may also combine in a bowl and
    cut butter in by hand). Set aside in the refrigerator.

  3. Cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder,
    baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

  4. Using a stand or hand mixer, beat butter and sugar until
    fluffy on medium high speed, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating
    just until the yellow disappears after each egg. Mix in vanilla and bananas
    until just until combined.

  5. Gradually add flour mixture to banana/butter mixture in
    thirds, alternately with sour cream in between each third. Beat until just
    combined. Measure out 1/4 cup batter and set aside for cream cheese filling.
    Stir chocolate chips and walnuts into remaining batter until just until
    combined.

  6. Measure out 1 cup batter (to top cream cheese layer) and
    spoon the rest of the batter into the prepared pan.

  7. To your now empty mixing bowl, add 1/4 cup reserved batter,
    cream cheese, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/4 cup sugar. Beat on medium high speed
    until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Spoon Cream Cheese Filling over batter
    and gently smooth, but do not touch the sides of the pan. Spread reserved 1 cup
    batter evenly over filling (it will be very thin).

  8. Tap pan on counter a few times to get rid of any air bubbles
    then sprinkle evenly with Cinnamon Walnut Streusel.

  9. Bake for 55-60 minutes at 350 degrees F or until toothpick
    inserted comes out clean (without inserting in cream cheese). Some readers have
    stated their cake was not done in 60 minutes, so if it’s not done, bake on! Let
    baked cake cool on wire rack for 1 hour. Gently invert cake onto a baking
    sheet, remove pan, and invert back onto cooling rack streusel side up. Let cool
    to room temperature.

  10. When ready to serve, whisk Vanilla Glaze ingredients
    together in a medium bowl and drizzle over cake. Sprinkle cake with mini
    chocolate chips (optional)

  11. Store in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
