Going Bananas with Cream Cheese

I have Jessica, my coworker to thank.

A few weeks ago she posted a banana bread recipe on facebook. Of course this recipe had a scrumptious looking picture. And interesting. It had a layer of cream cheese. Yes. Cream cheese. I love cream cheese. I love cream cheese frosting, cream cheese mints, cheese cake (especially if it's snickers cheesecake) all dips that have cream cheese, cream cheese in my hashbrowns, cream cheese in my scrambled eggs, my husbands enchiladas that he makes with cream cheese, and those little dill pickles wrapped in dried beef wouldn't be the same without cream cheese. Right? Oh yes, I can't forget cream cheese potato casserole. 

Pretty much every recipe that has cream cheese, count me in. I've never heard of it in banana bread until Jessica. It gets better. A friend of hers made some. And she shared. With me. 

I decided I had to try the recipe.  Harley Man was pretty happy I shared with him. <smiles>

If you love cream cheese, try this recipe.  http://www.averiecooks.com/2014/07/cream-cheese-filled-banana-bread.html And if you have ripe bananas.

The only difference is that I added a streusel topping which consisted of melted butter, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon.

It is so delicious. You will end up sharing with somebody. 

Thank you Jessica.

"A beautiful day.  Church-Rev. Don Carver (urban renewal Minister W'loo) spoke. Wonderful Sermon.  Home for dinner (scalloped potato, smoked chops, green beans, cucs and pudding).  Home all P.M. at 6 we went to McDonald's. Brought 4 beautiful roses in".

It's a great day to be alive~make it a great day!
