Pan-Ban-Choc-Croc CAKE

I live in a dorm apartment that is ridiculously hot -- pushing into the high 80s regularly -- it's disgusting. The heat causes my roommates and myself to walk around with far less clothes than you'd expect for a normal February day, it provides an excellent napping environment, and it also causes problems for our food. It is quite normal to grab a candy bar off the shelf and find that it is nice and soft, and when we do try to make healthy choices and go for some fruit we will find that the heat has ripened the banana frightfully fast. Overripe bananas are the reason I'm writing...overripe bananas and my hunger.

I was sad to see my bananas go to waste and so I decided to redeem the decay as best I could. Everyone knows you can use overripe bananas for banana bread, but everyone also knows that six guys in an apartment do not have the ingredients needed to make the bread. There are way too many ingredients that we never use...like flour.

So what to do? Well, I took a look at things we do have and decided I could pull something off. So here it is. I call it...
