Banana Snack Cake

This is so moist and good. My kids love it, and it makes a great after school snack. If you'd rather ,you can omit the nuts. Also cream cheese frosting works well with this too. UPDATE: to prevent graininess from the brown sugar in the frosting, mix the brown sugar and milk together in a sauce pan and cook on medium heat till sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool and mix w/ other frosting ingredients with a hand held mixer till smooth.
