Banana Pecan Cupcakes

Ingredients

Cupcakes

3 cups all-purpose flour*
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
16 tablespoons (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
1 cup Imperial Sugar Light Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 eggs
3 mashed ripe bananas
1 cup pecans, chopped

16 tablespoons (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
6 cups Imperial Sugar Confectioners Powdered Sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Topping

24 banana chips
24 pecan halves

*Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

Preheat oven to 325°F.
Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Mix together butter and both sugars until well combined; mix in vanilla.
Mix in eggs and mashed bananas.
Slowly mix in flour mixture.
Mix in chopped pecans.
Divide batter evenly into cupcake liners and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
For frosting, cream together butter and cream cheese.
Carefully mix in powdered sugar. Add in the vanilla and mix well.
Spoon frosting into a piping bag fitted with 1M piping tip. Pipe frosting onto cupcakes.
