It was a long week at our house. Caleb got sick and that put a damper on everything. I hate being sick, but I really hate it when my kiddos are sick. It is not fun. I feel helpless and wish I could do something to make them feel better. The only good part, the snuggles. I got lots of snuggles from Caleb this week. If only he would snuggle me when he was well!
After a long week, I think we need and deserve a sweet treat. To celebrate Caleb feeling better and to kick off the weekend, let’s all enjoy a piece of Banana Cake with Chocolate Chip Hazelnut Streusel. I LOVE this banana cake and I think you will too!
Bananas and hazelnuts are a dream combo. Trust me on this one. I made a simple banana cake and swirled Chocolate Hazelnut Butter into the cake batter. I like to use Justin’s nut butter, but Nutella would also work!
I don’t stop there. I sprinkle the cake with a sweet chocolate chip hazelnut streusel topping. I bet I’ve got your attention now. That’s right, this is not an ordinary banana cake, the chocolate hazelnut swirl and chococate chip hazelnut streusel topping make it extra, extra special!
You might be wondering when you should serve and eat this cake? Anytime is a good time. It is similar to a coffee cake, so it is 100% acceptable for breakfast and brunch. It also makes a great snack, wash it down with a glass of milk. And of course, it makes a killer dessert. Add a scoop of ice cream on the side and you will be in dessert heaven!
This Banana Cake with Chocolate Chip Hazelnut Streusel Topping is a winner! I think you should make it this weekend!
