A layer cake for the occasion!
300g butter beaten with150g sugar until light n fluffy;
add 6 eggs, one by one;
add 500g choc fudge powder;
add part by part 250g boiling water (scraping bowl after every addition);
drizzle slightly cool melted 100g dark chocolate;
pour into tray and bake in 200C preheated oven for 30mins or less
check with the toothpick step!
Above: toss sliced bananas into brown sugar laced with kuih lapis powder and toast!
When cake has cooled, cut into desired size for 2 layers,
spread choc ganache, layer toasted bananas, top with 2nd layer of choc fudge cake,
pour choc ganache to cover...
Slice up and there we are - layered choc fudge cake with caramelised banana filling! 
ps: I made a small square of 4"x4" of double layers,
leaving the rest of the tray bake plain cos we older folks (ie my DH) prefer our cakes plain (sigh!)
DH ate a bit off that right hand corner......

Lovely cake, Emily! Looks very fudgy and delicious with the caramelized bananas in the filling! I love plain cakes too, but would not mind a treat now and then! Thank you for your participation in Bake-Along's anniversary layer cake! Have a nice day!

This cake reminds me of one I made by steaming instead of baking, so moist!
