Ingredients

Best Ever Banana Cake (Slightly altered. The original recipe may be found at Recipezaar)

3/4 cup butter

2 1/4 cups sugar

3 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla

3 cups flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

2 teaspoons lemon juice

1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas

Cream Cheese Frosting

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

2 cups icing sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

Chopped walnuts

Directions

Preheat oven to 275.°

Grease and flour a 9 x 13 pan.

In a small bowl, mix mashed banana with the lemon juice; set aside.

In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, spices, and salt; set aside.

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in 2 tsp vanilla.

Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk.

Stir in banana mixture.

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for one hour (Note: My cake took almost 90 minutes to bake) or until toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean.

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

Cream the butter and cream cheese until smooth.

Beat in 1 tsp vanilla.

Add icing sugar and beat on low speed until combined, then on high speed until frosting is smooth.

Spread on cooled cake. Sprinkle chopped walnuts over top of the frosting, if desired.

I also found this recipe on recipezaar and made it the same way you did. It was to die for. I left out the freezer step because my freezer was full and I didn't think it was necessary. Thanks for posting your version. :)
