Directions
Step 1 –Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 3 –In a large bowl, add the remaining 1 1/4 cups of the flour, the baking powder, the baking soda, the salt, the cinnamon, the allspice, and the ginger and whisk to combine.
Step 4 –In a second large bowl, add the remaining 8 tablespoons of the butter, the granulated sugar, the brown sugar, the mashed banana, the sour cream, the eggs, and the vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
Step 5 –Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and whisk until just combined.
Step 6 –Pour 2 1/2 cups of the batter into the prepared ramekin dish.
Step 7 –Stack the ice cream bars on top of each other, then place the stack in the middle of the batter in the dish.
Step 8 –Pour the remaining batter around the sides and over the top of the ice cream bar stack.
Step 9 –Bake the cake until it is set and the center is still jiggly, about 45 minutes.
Step 10 –Transfer the ramekin dish to a wire rack and let the cake cool, about 15 minutes.
Step 11 –Serve.
