Banana Split Cake

My husbands family has been making this recipe for years. I would have to say this one is in my top 10 favorites of all I have in my recipe box. This is a refreshing dessert for the summer, yet the ingredients in this recipe you can get any time of the year in the market. It looks beautiful and so easy to make.
