Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter and flour a 13-inch x 9-inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the beater blade attachment or in a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 1 - 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until well incorporated. Mix in the sour cream and the bananas.
- Pour in the flour mixture, a little bit at a time, beating continuously until well-incorporated.
- Spread batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the top of the cake is golden and a toothpick or tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the frosting, fit a stand mixer with the beater attachment or use a large bowl and an electric hand mixer. On medium speed, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Turn the mixer to low and gradually add the powdered sugar. Once all the powdered sugar has been added, increase the speed to medium and beat for another 30 seconds. Add the vanilla and pinch salt; beat for another minute or so until smooth. Add a little milk (a couple of teaspoons at a time) if the frosting seems too stiff to spread.
- Spread frosting onto completely cooled cake. Cut into 12 pieces and serve. Cover and store leftover cake in the refrigerator; it keeps well (and keeps getting better) for 3 - 4 days.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease and flour three 8x2 inch round pans. You could use two 9 inch pans it you do not have 8 inch pans.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt for 30 seconds, set aside.
- In another bowl, add the buttermilk, vanilla and mashed bananas. Blend and set aside.
- In the bowl of your mixer, add the slightly softened butter and mix at medium speed until smooth.
- Gradually add the sugar and continue to mix on medium speed for 3 to 5 minutes until lightened in color and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time mixing until the yellow of the yolk disappears.
- With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients (3 additions of dry ingredients and 2 of liquid. Mix just until well blended- be careful not to over-mix.
- Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Cake is done with a toothpick comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached.
- Cool in pans 5 to 10 minutes on a cooling rack before turning out.
- In a medium size bowl, whisk the egg yolks and set aside. In a medium size saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt, blend together. Gradually stir in the 2 cups of milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Spoon 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into the bowl holding the egg yolks, stir constantly.
- You are tempering the eggs so you will not have scrambled eggs when you pour them into the simmering saucepan. Pour this into the saucepan, whisk constantly until the mixture begins to thicken. When it begins to thicken, remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract and banana extract. Remember the filling will thicken even more as it cools.
- Pour into a heat proof bowl to cool, for faster cooling use a 7x11 baking dish. Let cool a bit then cover with plastic wrap, pressing wrap against the filling to prevent a skin form forming. Refrigerate until the cream is throughly cold before using.
- Cut the butter into slices and add to the bowl of your mixer. Beat on low to medium speed until the butter is softened and smooth.
- Cut the cold cream cheese into pieces and add to the butter, beating at low to medium speed until incorporated. If you are using a hand mixer you may need to soften the cream cheese a bit more.
- Add the banana extract. Gradually add the powdered sugar beating on low speed until blended. Cover the bowl with a towel to keep down the cloud of powdered sugar.
- Increase mixing speed and beat until fluffy. Don't over beat or it will become too soft. If it becomes too soft, just refrigerate a short while to firm it up a bit.
- This frosting will pipe best if used while still chilled. You can make it in advance, refrigerate and when ready to use let it soften slightly (do not microwave) and remix.
- Will frost a 3 layer 8 or 9 inch cake.

- Paula's Pointers:.
- •Use very ripe bananas for best flavor.
- •Be sure to allow chilling time after topped with pudding--it needs at least 2 hours to set.
- •Allow frozen nondairy whipped topping to thaw in refrigerator overnight before using. That ensures it will spread smoothly over cake.
