Ingredients

For the Cake:

* 1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
* 3 ripe bananas (300 g), mashed
* 1 teaspoon baking soda (5 g)
* 1/2 teaspoon salt (2 g)
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter (115 g), softened
* 2 large eggs, room temperature
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 ml)
* 1/2 cup sour cream (120 g)
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (60 g), optional
* 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (90 g), optional

For the Cream Filling and Topping:

* 2 cups thick custard or cream cheese filling (480 ml)

For Garnish:

* 1 banana, sliced
* 1/4 cup walnut halves (30 g)

Preparation Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pans.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Mix in the mashed bananas and sour cream until smooth and fully combined.
6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined without overmixing.
7. Fold in the chopped walnuts and white chocolate chips if using.
8. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops.
9. Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
10. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread half of the creamy filling evenly on top.
12. Add the second cake layer and spread the remaining filling over the top, allowing some to gently drip down the sides.
13. Decorate with banana slices and walnut pieces, pressing them lightly into the topping.
14. Chill the cake for at least 30 minutes before slicing for clean layers.
