Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting





Banana's and cream cheese....sounds good to me. Who doesn't like banana bread anyway. This is a great snack to make on one of those cold fall days, kind of like today in WI. The banana's and the chopped walnuts make this one for the record's. The soft moist texture of the cake, followed by the semi sweet taste of cream cheese frosting. It's not only tantalizing, it's deliciously out right satisfying.This definitely helped my craving... for today anyway. I hope this turns out as great for you as it did for I. Until next time Here's to Cake Wishes and Chocolate Dreams.
