Banana Caramel Cream Cheese Butter Cake 香蕉焦糖乳酪奶油蛋糕



Just realized that the name of this cake is sooo long ^_^. Because this cake has banana, caramel, cream cheese and butter. With all these ingredients, sure it will not go wrong, a rich and buttery cake!

 

 

I especially love all the toppings !

I made two cakes the other day, so my daughter's friend can bring one home for her family.
