Ingredients

For the bundt cake

3 cups white whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoons salt
1½ cups sugar
1 cup butter unsalted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups pureed banana
1 cup sour cream
4 ounces dark chocolate melted

For the icing

3 ounces ⅓-less-fat cream cheese
½ cup butter softened
1 tablespoons Grand Marnier orange-flavored liqueur
4 cups powdered sugar
¼ cup strawberry puree

Instructions

For the cake

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a non-stick bundt pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Melt 4 ounces of dark chocolate in microwave safe bowl at 20 second intervals until smooth.
Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in medium size bowl. Whisk to combine then set aside.
In a large mixing bowl using hand mixer, cream the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and mix until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing completely after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract and bananas and mix until combined.
Add flour and sour cream alternately, starting with flour and ending with flour, stirring until just combined.
Pour ½ of the batter into a medium sized mixing bowl. Add the melted chocolate and stir until combined.
Add the two batters by heaping spoonfuls alternately around the pan in layers until both batters are used. Swirl all the way to the bottom of the pan with a knife to marble the cake.
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into center of cake comes out clean. Set cake on cooling rack for 10 minutes. Remove cake from pan to finish cooling.

For the icing

Place cream cheese, butter, and liqueur in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until blended.
Gradually add powdered sugar, and beat just until blended.
