And don’t even think of skipping the cream cheese icing. It’s utterly divine and takes this cake to a whole new level.

This is a wonderfully simple cake that tastes fantastic, is very easy cake to bake, comes together in one bowl and will use up those old bananas that are hanging around – what’s not to love?

There’s a great trick in the recipe that ensures the cake is extremely moist. You pop the freshly baked cake into the freezer for a while. Just inspired.
