BANANA CAKE WITH MOST EXCELLENT CARAMEL FROSTING
Delicious and easy! The moist cake starts with a mix but tastes homemade. The penuche-style frosting is very sweet! I clipped this recipe from the Oregonian newspaper many years ago.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 for glass or light metal pan; 350 for dark metal or coated pan. Position a rack in the middle of the oven.
- Grease and flour a 9x13" pan.
- Put 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a measuring cup and fill with milk to the 2/3 cup line. Set aside.
- Mash bananas with a fork, adding the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice to them as you mash. Set aside.
- Combine cake mix and baking soda in a large mixer bowl and stir. Add bananas, softened butter, lemon-milk mixture, eggs, and vanilla. Beat at low speed about 30 seconds until moistened. Turn speed to medium and beat another 4 minutes.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and place in oven.
- For glass or metal pan, bake at 375 degrees for 28 to 33 minutes. For dark metal or coated pan, bake at 350 degrees for 31 to 33 minutes. Cake should be pulling away slightly from edges of pan when done, and the center should spring back when lightly touched with finger. Check for doneness at lowest time, but don't move cake in oven before then as it may fall.
- Cool in pan on wire rack, then frost.
- For frosting:.
- Spread chopped pecans on a baking sheet and bake in 375 degree oven for 5 to 8 minutes until lightly browned. Watch carefully to avoid overcooking! Set aside while you prepare frosting.
- Have all frosting ingredients ready so you can move quickly while making the frosting, or it may set up before you can smooth it on the cake.
- In a small saucepan, thoroughly mix brown sugar and flour. Add butter and milk, and set over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a rolling boil. Boil exactly 1 1/2 minutes.
- Remove from heat; cool 5 minutes. Beat briefly with a wooden spoon until it begins to thicken. Mix in vanilla and continue beating until frosting is the consistency of thick honey, no more than 1 to 2 minutes.
- Immediately pour frosting onto cooled cake and quickly spread with the back of a warm spoon before frosting begins to set up. Quickly sprinkle with toasted pecans.
- You can serve immediately; although frosting may take several hours to completely set.

BANANA CARAMEL CAKE WITH MASCARPONE FROSTING
I have seen banana cakes made in all different ways, but this one was a first for me! By Martha Stewart....it's a good thing. I have not made this one yet, so times are an estimate. And because all bananas differ, the bananas used (all 6) should weigh about 4 lbs.

Steps:
- PREPARE THE CAKE:.
- Preheat oven to 350ºF.
- Using a small brush, lightly coat two 9-inch cake pans with softened butter or vegetable-oil cooking spray.
- Dust with flour, tap out any excess, and set aside.
- Over a surface covered with a large sheet of waxed or parchment paper, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Into a medium bowl, resift the flour mixture and set aside.
- In a large bowl, using a mixer set on medium-high speed, beat the butter until light -- about 1 minute.
- Add the sugar and continue to beat for 2 more minutes.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition, and mix in the vanilla.
- Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture by thirds, alternating with the buttermilk and bananas and ending with the dry ingredients.
- Mix just enough to blend the batter after each addition.
- BAKE THE CAKE:.
- Divide the batter equally between the pans and bake on the middle rack of the oven until a tester inserted into each cake layer comes out clean -- 25 to 30 minutes.
- Cool in the cake pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
- Using a knife, loosen the cake layers from the pan sides and invert the layers onto the wire rack to cool completely.

- Cook the mixture, without stirring, over medium-high heat to soft-ball stage (238ºF).
- Remove from heat and cool the caramel mixture to 140º F.
- Place the butter on top of the cooled caramel mixture.
- Remove the thermometer and, using a handheld mixer set on medium-high speed, beat the caramel until it thickens enough to hold its shape, lightens in color, and changes from translucent to opaque -- about 5 minutes.
- ICE THE CAKE:.
- Use a serrated knife to trim the mounded side of the cake layers, if necessary.
- Line the edges of a cake plate with 3-inch-wide strips of waxed or parchment paper and place a cake layer, trimmed side down, on top.
