Sorry I’ve been missing lately. I haven’t had the heart to post new recipes. My father became ill and recently passed away. This was his favorite dessert. So, in his memory, I am reblogging it. I will be back to blogging soon.
With my family, there doesn’t have to be a holiday or celebration to have dessert. If we get together for a family dinner, you can bet there will be dessert. Homemade or store-bought. It doesn’t matter. But there must be dessert. This was originally an “experiment recipe” and of course I tested it on my family. But now it’s my go to dessert when I want to make an effort to actually make dessert, but don’t necessarily have the time or energy to be a Master Chef.

- 4 medium bananas
- 1 carton Cool Whip topping 8 ounce size
- Optional: sprinkles or…

No need to apologize. The cake was my dad’s favorite, he would’ve agreed with you that it was yummy. It was the only thing he asked for when he was in the hospital for his 85th birthday as you see in the picture. Thank you for the kind words.

I am so sorry about your loss! I also lost my father recently (a few months ago), and it is still very hard on me, but pouring emotions into words on the screen really helps. Blessings and best wishes to you!

We were told he had six months, but only got 3 weeks. So I’m still processing everything.
