I was so fascinated by the cake photo, ingredient list, & cake description that I made this cake about 3 weeks ago without the benefit of your "secrets". The finished product was lovely; I spread my pecans over the entire top surface. My brother loved the taste & texture. My sister said she & her kids loved it. However, I didn't like it. The layers were so dense & moist & flat (just as you describe in your secrets) that I thought the cake had fallen or the recipe might have had misprints re the amount of flour or bananas. I weighed my ingredients. The icing was delicious. I might bake this again using your prep tips. Also, I think a regular banana cake with this icing & pecans could be spectacular. Got any recipes for a banana cake?
