I'm a pastor's wife, and it's so good to have something to serve when friends drop in unexpectedly. Because this banana nut cake can be frozen and also keeps well in the refrigerator, I try to have one on hand-just in case. -Gloria Barkley, Wilmington, North Carolina

STRAWBERRY/BANANA NUT CAKE



Strawberry/Banana Nut Cake image

My favorite homemade ice cream is strawberry/banana. This past weekend, I had a strawberry cake mix, a can of strawberry icing, a ripe banana, and some nuts in my kitchen and I thought, "why not". I topped this bundt cake with a powdered sugar lemon glaze, but I also want to try it with a cream cheese icing.
