3
In a small bowl, mix mashed banana with the lemon juice; set aside.
4
In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.

* The original recipe, which I adapted from Food.com recommended to freeze the cake for 45 minutes immediately after baking. It makes the cake moist. I didn't do this since I brought them to work after frosting.

For the frosting:
10
In a mixer bowl, cream butter, cream cheese and Nutella until smooth.
11
Gradually add powdered sugar and beat on low speed until combined, then on high until frosting is smooth.
12
Pipe onto the cooled cupcakes. I scooped the frosting using a 2-ounce ice cream scooper and then spread it with a spatula.
