* to fill with Bailey's Irish Cream BANANA CAKE
Preheat oven to 350~, grease and flour a straight
sided 9" cake pan. Beat last 4 ingredients well. On
low speed or by hand; stir in carrot cake mix until
nearly smooth. Don't over stir. Pour into prepared pan
and bake for 20-30 minutes or until cake springs back
when lightly touched in the center. Cool in pan for 15
minutes. Remove from pan. Cool completely on wire
rack. Slice horizontally into 3 layers. BAILEY'S MOUSSE
Soften gelatine in Baileys Original Irish Cream for
5 minutes. Then dissolve over very low heat, or in
microwave for 1 minute, stirring every 20 seconds.
Whip cream until peaks form, not too stiff. Fold
Baileys Original Irish Cream mixture into cream. Set
aside in refrigerator. In a double boiler over (not
in) boiling water, using hand held electric mixer,
beat the egg whites with the sugar on high for seven
minutes. Fold together with Baileys and whipped cream
mixture. Divide into thirds. ASSEMBLE
Start with layer of cake, then Baileys mousse, then
sliced bananas. Do this using all three layers. On
sides of cake, press toasted almonds. Chill overnight.
If desired, decorate each serving with a rosette of
mousse topped with a chocolate truffle cup filled with
Baileys Original Irish Cream.
