Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

This cake is so good! It has the wonderful combined taste of two of my faves: banana bread and moist, white cake. SO good! And who can resist creamy, cream cheese frosting? Not me, I tell you. And either can the rest of my family. I think we wolfed down this whole sheet cake in one night! Pathetic, I know. You will love this recipe!
