In a large mixing bowl, cream sugar and butter.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Add bananas, sliced very thin, beat well.
Sift flour with baking soda, baking powder and salt; add alternately with sour milk.
Add vanilla and mix for 2 minutes on medium speed of mixer.
Pour into three greased and floured 8-inch cake pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 - 30 minutes or until cake tests done.
Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
FROSTING: Try my Peanut Butter Frosting or one of my other frostings from this Cookbook.
Spread frosting between cake layers and over the top and sides of cake.
*Sour Milk: Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar plus sweet milk to equal 1-1/2 cups sour milk.
