- Spoon remaining 1/2 cup whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a star tip, and pipe small rosettes over top of cake. Top each rosette with a maraschino cherry. Refrigerate, uncovered, until layers are set, about 2 hours. Garnish with sprinkles just before serving.

Tips:
- Make sure the bananas are ripe but not overripe, as overripe bananas will make the cake too mushy.
- Use a combination of brown sugar and granulated sugar to give the cake a richer flavor.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this will make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it, as this will help the frosting to set properly.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to spread the frosting on the cake.
- If you are using store-bought frosting, be sure to let it soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes before using, as this will make it easier to spread.
- For a more decadent cake, you can add a layer of chocolate ganache between the cake layers.
- To make the cake even more festive, you can decorate it with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or fresh fruit.
