BANANA LAYER CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
I made this years ago for a birthday and immediately lost the recipe which I have been searching for ever since. I finally found it on epicurious so I am posting her for safe keeping. It must be good if I've been looking for it that long right? I didn't use cake flour when I made it and it turned out wonderful still. Prep time is approximate.

BANANA LAYER CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Mashed bananas adds more than just flavor to this cake--it also keeps the layers moist. I found this recipe on aol.com/food/ while I was surfing around. This looked very interesting and it turned out so beautifully. It tastes great too! It uses coconut which I don't like so I only ate a smidgin!

MY FAVORITE GLAZED BANANA CAKE
I've searched high and low for the *perfect* banana cake; well, I think I've found it! This is moist and delicious, easy to make, and the perfect way to use up the oldest, blackest bananas you can find. The glaze topping is a nice change from the typical cream cheese icing, because it's not overpowering--it really allows the full flavor of the banana cake to shine through. Use your choice of ground walnuts or ground pecans in this cake--I've tried both, and either one works fine. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do !! I think it's just fantastic!! (Chris says it reminds him of Entemann's banana cake, only better! How's that for a compliment!) Number of servings depends on how big you make your slices.
