Here I was again with on over abundance of bananas that needed to be either eaten or used in baking before they turned dark…so, when I saw this recipe on Pinterest, I had to give it a try, besides it looked delish!  I just happened to have all the ingredients in my fridge to make it!  If you like banana pudding, you should love this cake.  This recipe uses a boxed cake mix, but you can certainly use your favorite yellow cake recipe instead of boxed.  I took this cake to work and to several of my neighbors and they loved it!  It’s a great cake for any time of year, but especially when it’s hot and you want something cold and yummy!  This is also a great cake to take to any gathering.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do…and my co-workers and neighbors.

Happy Cake Baking!
