Use a hand whisk to mix it Spoon the flour into your
measuring cup and then level off the top with a knife,
don’t scoop it and don’t pack it into the cup. Be careful
not to overmix the batter, just mix until all the large lumps
are gone, tiny lumps are fine. Pour the batter out into
your prepared half sheet baking pan.

reaches the corners of the baking sheet and is evenly
distributed across it.

For the Frosting:
I used my favorite Guilt-free, naturally sweetened,
decadent banana based Chocolate-Fudge frosting.
Healthy Chocolate-Fudge Frosting
Mix
1/2 a very-ripe large banana, mashed
2 Tbs. (or more!) unsweetened cocoa powder
4 Tbs. melted coconut oil
scant (pinch) 1/16 tsp. salt
Mix in optional
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
tsp. very strong coffee.
Gradually until desired consistency.
If you don’t want any banana flavor detected
in the frosting, use a non-ripe banana, Also, Add
1/4 tsp lemon juice to reduce any banana flavor,
and add extra powdered coconut sugar to taste.
