In a large mixing bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in
egg and egg white. Add the buttermilk, bananas and vanilla. Combine flour, baking
soda and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Stir in walnuts. Pour into two
greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or
until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10
minutes before removing to a wire rack. For filling, in a small saucepan, melt
butter and brown sugar in over medium heat. In a small bowl, combine flour and
salt with a small amount of milk until smooth. Gradually add the remaining milk.
Stir in egg yolk. Add to brown sugar mixture. Cook and stir over medium heat for
about 10 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; add vanilla and
nuts. Cool. Spread between cake layers. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Chill.
Store in refrigerator.
