How to Make Banana Sour Cream Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, sour cream, eggs, oil, and mashed bananas. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in the chopped walnuts.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
While the cake is cooling, prepare the cream cheese frosting: In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until light and fluffy.
Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously with the cream cheese frosting.
