For our birthday celebrations, I usually make a chocolate cake layered with ganache. Moist one-bowl banana cake topped with rich cream cheese frosting. Great recipe for using ripe bananas! Every time I buy bananas, we end up with that last banana or two that is starting to get too ripe, and no one wants to eat the over-ripe bananas. So, I have to make something with the leftover.
