You'll go bananas for this banana flip cake with two layers of banana cake sandwiched around a light and fluffy banana cream filling. It's like a larger version of a banana flip, the vintage snack cake that was popular in the 1960s.

Ingredients

1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant banana pudding mix
2 ¼ cups milk, divided
4 large eggs
¾ cup butter
¾ cup shortening
1 ½ cups white sugar
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons banana extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x13-inch pans.
Stir cake mix and pudding mix together in a bowl. Beat in 1 1/2 cups of milk and eggs until smooth. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
Cream butter and shortening in a large bowl with an electric mixer until combined. Gradually mix in sugar and flour. Beat in remaining 3/4 cup milk and banana extract until smooth.
Invert one cake onto a rectangular serving platter. Spread filling over top and cover with remaining cake layer. Serve immediately or keep chilled until 1/2 hour before serving.
