BANANA BREAD BARS with brown butter frosting

This is maybe the best thing I have EVER made. Seriously. Everyone loved it. It tastes a lot like banana bread but more like cake with delicious frosting and SUPER moist.This is another Pinterest find.

Banana Bread Bars Ingredients

• 1-1/2 c. sugar
• 1 c. sour cream
• 1/2 c. butter, softened
• 2 eggs
• 1-3/4 (3 or 4) ripe bananas, mashed
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 c. all purpose flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 3/4 tsp salt 
• 1/2 c chopped walnuts (optional)

Brown Butter Frosting Ingredients

• 1/2 c. butter
• 4 c. powdered sugar
• 1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 3 tbsp. milk

Heat over to 375 degrees. Grease a cake pan. I a large bow, beat together sugar, sour cream, butter, and eggs until creamy. Blend in bananas and vanilla extract. Add flour, baking soda, salt, and bled for 1 minute. Stir in walnuts. 

Spread batter evenly into pan. Bake 20-25 minute or until golden brown. 

Meanwhile, for frosting, heat butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until boiling. Let the butter turn a delicate brown and remove from heat immediately. 

Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Whisk together until smooth (it should be thicker than a glaze but thinner than frosting). Using a spatula, spread the brown butter frosting over the warm bars (the frosting will be easier to spread while the bars are still warm).
