Looking for Recipe for Host: Banana Cream Brownie Squares?

[cookin4u]

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a recipe that my host keeps raving about. She was a past consultant and wants me to make this cake but she has lost the recipe. Here is what she has told me. You cook it in the Deep Dish Baker. Its a banana cake with strawberries and bananas on top of it. I would be most grateful if anyone has any idea where I could find this recipe for her. Thanks everyone!!!

1 T vegetable oil
2/3 c peanuts, divided
1 c butterscotch caramel ice cream topping
1/2 c semi-sweet chocolate morsels, melted
1 banana, sliced
2 c thawed, frozen whipped topping

the peanuts. In a bowl, combine peanuts with butterscotch caramel topping ; pour into bottom of baker; microwave on high 1 1/2 minutes or until warm. Tilt baker to coat bottom with caramel mixture. Place cake, right side up, into baker.Press down around edge to allow caramel mixture to come up sides

3. In micro-cooker, microwave chocolate morsels on high 1-1
1/2 minutes, stirring after each 20-second interval or
until melted and smooth. Pipe 12 flower-shaped decorations onto
parchment paper. Place one of the remaining peanuts in
center of each flower. Slide parchment onto chilled platter; set
side (or place in refrigerator for 15 minutes or until set).
Slice banana; place 12 slices evenly around
top edge of cake. Drizzle remaining chocolate in a zigzag
pattern over banana slices.

4. Fill a decorator with whipped topping, pipe 12
rosettes slightly overlapping banana slices. Grate remaining peanuts over rosettes. Cut 3 pineapple slices into quarters. Place one
quarter next to each rosette.

5. Slice 6 of the strawberries in half; place against side of cake
below banana slices. Slice remaining strawberries to create a strawberry fan; place in center of cake. Place one chocolate flower decoration on each rosette.
