Preparation
Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Grease bottom only of 13×9-inch pan.
In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil, eggs and mashed bananas with electrical mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl every now and then. Pour into pan.
Bake 33 to 38 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool totally, about 1 hour.
Poke top of cake every 1/2-inch with long-tined fork, wiping fork every now and then to reduce sticking. In large bowl, stir together condensed milk, coconut milk, and whipping cream. Carefully pour evenly over top of cake. Cover; refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight until mixture is absorbed into cake.
Spread frosting over cake. Garnish each serving with banana slices and/or toasted coconut. Store loosely covered in fridge.
Sprinkle your favourite toasted nuts over the top of the cake.
