Ingredients Cake:

2/3 cup butter

2-1/2 cups flour

1-2/3 cups sugar

1-1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1-1/4 cups mashed ripe banana

2/3 cup buttermilk

2 eggs

2/3 cup chopped walnuts

Coconut Topping:

1-1/2 cups packed dark brown sugar

2/3 cup butter

2 Tablespoons milk

2 cup flaked coconut

2/3 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions:

Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter. Add dry ingredients, bananas, and buttermilk. Mix slightly. Add eggs and beat at medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in walnuts. Pour into a greased and floured 9 x 13-inch pan. Bake for about 35 minutes or until very well browned and toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. When cool, prepare topping.

Coconut Topping: Set oven to broil. Mix butter, sugar, and milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until butter melts. Add coconut and walnuts. Pour and spread over cooled cake. Place under broiler (not too close) and broil for 2 to 3 minutes or just until coconut begins to brown. Cool.

Cake does best when not refrigerated or covered.
