CRUMB TOPPING

Put all the ingredients in a large bowl and cut them with a fork or pastry cutter to get crumbs. Keep refrigerated while making a cake. It should be cold.

BANANA CAKE

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Butter and flour 9 inch spring form pan or spray with non-stick spray. In a large dish combine flour, cinnamon, salt and baking powder. Set aside. Mash bananas. Combine mashed bananas with butter, add eggs, sugar and vanilla and whisk. Keep adding flour mixture and continue whisking. Finally add milk and whisk until well combined. Fold the mini chocolate chips into the batter. Pour ⅔ of the batter in the spring form pan and spread evenly. Save the rest for later.

CHEESECAKE FILLING

In a separate dish mix cream cheese with sugar until creamy. Add an egg, flour and vanilla and mix until well combined.

Spread the cheesecake filling over the batter so that it does not touch the sides of the spring form pan. It should be at least 1 inch away. Place the remaining batter over the cheesecake filling and put crumb on the top.

Bake for 65-75 min or until the toothpick comes out clean or with a few crumbs on it. If the crumb topping gets dark brown, cover the cake with aluminum foil.

Take out of the oven and leave to cool in the spring form pan for 20 minutes.

When the cake is ready to be served, make the glaze. Combine all the ingredients in a medium dish, until smooth. Drizzle over the cake.
