Detailed Directions and Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350F (175C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Add Wet Ingredients:
Mix in the sour cream and mashed bananas until well combined.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts and white chocolate chips.
6. Bake the Cakes:
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Assemble the Cake:
Once the cakes have cooled, spread half of the creamy custard over the top of one layer. Place the second layer on top and spread the remaining custard over the top.
8. Garnish and Serve:
Garnish with banana slices and whole or halved walnuts. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
