Tips:

For a smoother frosting, use a food processor or blender to blend the bananas and butter until completely smooth.
If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can mash the bananas by hand with a fork or potato masher. Just be sure to mash them until they are very smooth.
If you want a thicker frosting, add more powdered sugar. Start with 3 cups and add more as needed until you reach the desired consistency.
If you want a thinner frosting, add more milk or cream. Start with 1 tablespoon and add more as needed until you reach the desired consistency.
For a more flavorful frosting, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the frosting will be.
If you don't have any ripe bananas, you can use frozen bananas. Just thaw them completely before using.
This frosting can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container.
