Did You Know?

Bananas that are turning brown and soft are just right for using in recipes like this cake.

How-To

Brown bananas? Toss them, unpeeled, in the freezer. They'll be ready when you need them for any recipe using mashed bananas. Simply thaw and mash.

Special Touch

For a change, serve the cake in triangles instead of squares. Cut the cake lengthwise in half and crosswise into fourths; cut squares diagonally in half.

Special Touch

For a room temperature cake, cool completely, about 1 hour and do not heat frosting before spreading.
