Hello Friends!!! Alanna here from Two Sisters and a Story. I am thrilled it is finally warming up and school is out. This gets me in the mood to do little finger food parties with my kids. The other day I was making my typical banana bread that we usually eat for breakfast but was craving more of a dessert type banana treat and thought of a carrot cake and how I love the cream cheese frosting and then realized “HELLO…why have I not tried banana bread with cream cheese frosting?!?!?” They are a match made in heaven. These are perfect for any get together, or tea parties, or lets be honest… just to have on hand. I hope you love them as much as we did at our house. ENJOY!!!
