Tropical Banana Cake image

I had some bananas sitting on the counter that needed to be baked into something, so I decided to make a cake. I didn't have any cream cheese to make a regular frosting, so I used the broiled frosting recipe my om had given me. Very easy, good flavors together. Makes a nice rustic presentation if you do it in layers. I included the cooling time in the prep time.
