In a small mixing bowl, combine peanut butter and Cool Whip, stirring untilmixed well. Refrigerate until cupcakes are ready to be frosted.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix with baking powder and 1 cup water until mixed well. Add Gerber bananas and stir thoroughly. Mix in mashed banana.

Other then the fake cool whip that sounds like a pretty good recipe of hers! Usually they are so loaded with fake foods and sugar I'm too scared to attempt them.0

I agree, although I never use boxed mixes for baking.
I think I'd rather just have a fresh banana with peanut butter!0 -

I know what you mean, I make some substitutes to use more whole foods. you could just use a little peanut butter and omit the cool whip0 -
