banana cake frosted with peanut buttercream frosting, dotted with chocolate chips

In my travels through the interwebs yesterday, I stumbled across this gorgeous banana, chocolate and peanut butter cake. E bakes for a little cafe in the Northern Liberties section of Philadelphia, and when faced with a bunch of overripe bananas, she drew inspiration from a cupcake that another blogger made back in January to create this cake. Every time I look at the photos of it, a part of me wants to leap up and head to the kitchen to recreate it myself.

Here's another one Elvis would love, just swirl some peanut butter in the batter and he'll say; "Thank you, Thank you very much"!
