    Recipe



    Lightly grease a 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Line bottom with waxed paper; grease paper. Set aside. For filling, in a small mixing bowl combine cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed till smooth. Add whole egg and milk; beat until combined. Spread in the prepared pan; set aside. For cake, in a medium mixing bowl stir together flour, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside. In a small mixer bowl beat egg yolks and vanilla on medium speed about 5 minutes or till thick and lemon colored. Gradually add the 1/3 cup sugar, beating till sugar is dissolved. Stir in banana and nuts. Thoroughly wash the beaters. In a large mixing bowl beat the egg whites on medium speed till soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add the 1/2 cup sugar, beating on high speed till stiff peaks from (tips stand straight). Fold yolk mixture into egg whites. Sprinkle the flour mixture evenly over egg mixture; fold in just till blended. Carefully spread the batter evenly over the filling in the pan. Bake in a 375F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Immediately loosen the cake from sides of pan and turn out onto a towel sprinkled with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off paper. Starting with narrow end, roll up cake using towel as a guide. (Do not roll towel into cake.) Cook completely on a wire rack. Spread top with Cream Cheese Frosting. If desired, drizzle with chocolate syrup. Cream Cheese Frosting: In a small mixing bowl combine half of cream cheese and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed till light and fluffy. Gradually beat in powdered sugar. Beat in enough milk to make a frosting of spreading consistency. Makes about 1/2 cup frosting.
