Banana Butter Cake

I used "Ang Ba Jio" (a type of banana specially for cake baking) to bake this Banana Butter Cake. Cake turned up very soft and texture is just right with the natural banana fragrant. I adopt the recipe from "Hong Kitchen". Next time I will left it to ripe for a day or two before using it to bake banana cake.
