UPSIDE-DOWN BANANA CAKE
As with all upside-down cakes, what goes into the pan first ends up on top, so this ready-to-eat banana cake has enticing banana slices on top making it both aesthetically more pleasing to the eye - and even more delicious. Adapted from a recipe in a recent issue of the Australian magazine 'New Idea'. If you like nuts on your banana cakes, add slivered almonds - as suggested below - or whatever nuts take your fancy!

Steps:
- Grease a 14cm x 24cm loaf pan, and line the base and sides with baking paper.
- Making the topping: combine the butter and sugar in a small bowl and stir until the sugar has dissolved; spread this over the base of the pan; cut each banana into 9cm lengths, then cut each banana into four even slices; arrange the slices, cut-side facing downwards on top of the butter-sugar mixture.
- Making the cake: beat the butter, sugar and vanilla extract in a small bowl (with an electric mixer if you have one) until light and fluffy; beat in the egg until it has combined with the mixture; transfer to a large bowl and stir in the mashed bananas; then gradually stir in the flour and the milk. Once the mixture is thoroughly combined, spoon it into the prepared pan on top of the banana slices.
- Cooking the cake: cook in a moderate (180°C) for one hour or until cooked when tested with a skewer; allow it to rest in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then turn it out onto an wire rack to cool.
- Serving the cake: the banana cake can be served warm or at room temperature. Serve with fresh cream or sweetened cream cheese (see SERVING SUGGESTIONS below).
- SERVING SUGGESTIONS: to serve the cake with sweetened cream cheese, beat 125g cream cheese with 2 tablespoons of icing sugar until the mixture is smooth, and serve in a separate bowl. Sprinkle the cake with slivered almonds.

SOUTHERN LIVING MARVELOUS BANANA CAKE
This cake is special enough for birthdays, since I made it for my son's first! He loved banana bread (still does!!) so it seemed a natural pick. The Banana-nut frosting is unique or try your own favorite. Note: the frosting calls for both 16 ounces powdered sugar PLUS 3 cups flour.

- Spread batter evenly in prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool completely before inverting on a cutting board, removing parchment paper, and gently flipping over so the top of the cake is facing up.

Add half of the powdered sugar and mix on low until combined. Add remaining powdered sugar and mix on low until incorporated, increase speed to high and beat for 5 minutes.

- Prepare the Custard Filling: Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small, heavy saucepan. Whisk together egg yolks and half-and-half in a large glass measuring cup or bowl; gradually whisk into sugar mixture.
- Prepare the Cake Layers: reheat oven to 350°F. Coat 3 (8-inch) round cake pans with baking spray; set aside. Beat cake mix, eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on low speed until incorporated, about 30 seconds.
- Bake Cake Layers on middle rack in preheated oven until lightly golden and a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool 10 minutes.
- Return to the Custard Filling: Beat whipping cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove Custard Filling from refrigerator; gently fold whipped cream into chilled Custard Filling.
- Prepare the Whipped Cream Frosting: Beat whipping cream and vanilla with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- Assemble the cake: Using a serrated knife, horizontally slice a very thin layer off the top of each Cake Layer to remove any domes, and discard. Place 1 Cake Layer, cut side up, on a platter; cover Cake Layer with half of the sliced bananas, covering top of layer.
- Place wafers in a ziplock plastic bag; seal bag, and coarsely crush wafers into small pieces using your hands. Gently press some of the crushed wafers around bottom of cake (about 2 to 3 inches up the sides).
