These bars are always a hit at potlucks here in the small rural farming community where my husband and I live. I also like to provide them for coffee hour after church. They're so moist and delicious that wherever I take them, they don't last long. —Karen Dryak, Niobrara, Nebraska

LOVE LOVE LOVE! I cut the sugar back to 1 cup and the confectioners sugar to 3 cups - turned out delicious. Next time I'd cut the sugar in the frosting in half - that would be sweet enough. This one's a keeper.

These are AWESOME!!! I don't like bananas but they were mashed so that was great. I also added a 1/2 C. Crushed Walnuts to the batter which was wonderful. I will make these again!!!

Can't count the times I've made this. I like to make it for hubs to share with co-workers and have also lost count of the times I shared the recipe. Simple cake, on-hand ingredients, very easy and super delicious. Can't ask for more.

I got this recipe from Karen I can't remember how many years ago. It's great! When I say I'm making Banana Bars the girls will say the ones with the cream cheese frosting. I just say is there any other one. I'm actually making these tomorrow. They are pretty much a staple in my house.Thanks again Karen.

This recipe is a family favorite.. Great way to use banana instead of making banana bread. Sometimes I just sprinkle it with powdered sugar... It's STILL yummy!
