Bananas & Cream Pound Cake
This banana pound cake got me a date with my future husband. At a church event, he loved it so much, he asked for another piece. The rest is history! —Courtney Farnon, Cartersville, Georgia

This is really delicious. The only thing I would say, is make sure you don't add too much Cool Whip or the top layer won't gel correctly. My family loved it and go bleed it up in 2 days.
I followed the other reviewers' advice and skipped making the pound cake and just bought pre-made. Everyone loved it! I will definitely make it again!
All of the kids in our extended family love this dessert! To make it even easier, use a Sara Lee frozen pound cake for the base layer. So easy and delicious!
Very good. Will make again.
Wonderful summertime cake. Light & fluffy.
This is a great recipe except for baking the pound cake in the 9 X 5 pan. It took 70 minutes to be done. Then trying to cut it to fit was impossible without leaving gaps. I would make it again only next time I will bake it in the 9 x 13 pan and adjust the cooking time.
Brought this to school as a Monday treat. It was a huge hit!
My family enjoyed this and I used a store bought pound cake ! The pudding layer is excellent!

Veggiemama , spray your pans with non-stick spray then sprinkle with sugar all over . I have never had a cake stick after treating my pans like this .
