very good cake that can stand all by itself. However, the frosting makes it go over the top. Frost your cake once the cake is cooled and just as soon as the frosting is made, as mine got stiff very quick. One of my guests ate three pieces and exclaimed "every bite is better than the one before"

    Made this cake last night for dessert. It is WONDERFUL!! The flavor combination of banana and caramel is perfect! I only had three ripe bananas - can't imagine how it could be any better with four. Probably used about 2 cups of powdered sugar -just kept adding until it reached the consistency I wanted. Will definitely be a keeper at my house!

    This was an absolutely fantastic recipe. I baked it for my son's first birthday party and it was demolished. At least four people asked me for the recipe for the icing! Incidentally, that was the one thing I changed. I used significantly less powdered sugar--I just stopped adding sugar when I reached the desired consistency (I think it was more like 2.5 cups of sugar). Thank you so much for this great recipe!

    This was a great recipe. I've never made a banana cake before and my DH loves caramel. Everyone demolished this cake. I'm going to always make this cake for every occasion I can think of. I only used 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar when preparing the frosting and it was still delicious. I also used cake flour which made the cake very light and moist. Thank you for such a great recipe!
