Banana Cake Roll Caramel topping cream cheese

Banana Cake Roll Caramel topping cream cheese -

Happy Friday! First name you see the new little flag in the upper right corner? If you want to see baby / pregnancy / mom updates- thats where they will! (Not on the home page) check if you are interested in this kind of thing!

I hope anyway that you have some exciting weekend plans. At the present moment- I am delighted to be writing this post I look at the final draft of my line track favorite television the night of Thursday, Parenthood, Scandal. (Do any of you watch these shows?) Anyway, after months away from the "Great White Way" I'll see two Broadway shows this weekend I could not be more excited for. Also- I plan to attack at least one thing in my cooking to do list this weekend, we hope to have something great to share next week!

speaking of sharing- I'm so excited about this cake roll. You've heard of pumpkin rolls, I suppose? This is essentially the same idea, but made with a banana cake. I did not know how it would work, as I Subbed banana for pumpkin in the classic recipe and changed some spice, but let me tell you it was oh so good. My working skills may need some work, but I really liked the super-thick layer of cheese cream filling was perfectly proportioned cake. I could not help but add a good amount of filling caramel sauce and that oh so delicious. Is not everything better with caramel (At least I think so.)

A note on PANS rollers this cake calls for a "10 × 15 Jelly Roll Pan " I had a quarter and a pan of half of the sheet, but none of these dimensions were right (one was 13 x 18 and was essentially a 9 × 13) I made the choice to use the smallest one worried that the cake would be too thin / sec if I cooked in the pan half of the sheet. In result- it was a thicker cake not been as swirls- but let me tell you the texture was perfect. You can choose to use pan on the basis of this information! :)

PS Am I the only one who sees completely the Green Bay "G" 'Packers in the form of my rope? Haha? Go Pack Go! ;)
