Banana Bars

1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
4 ripe bananas, mashed
2 teaspoons lemon juice
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda
1/2 cup-1 cup buttermilk
1 cup nuts, chopped (optional) 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In large mixing bowl, cream sugar and butter until smooth. Add eggs and bananas and beat until smooth. Add lemon juice and mix briefly. Mix flour, salt and soda together in separate bowl; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Fold in nuts with the last addition of buttermilk. Do not over mix. Pour into a greased and floured jelly-roll pan (17 1/2x12 1/2) or cookie sheet if you don't have a jelly-roll pan. (We found and love our pan from Costco) Bake for 30 min. Allow to cool and frost with glaze.

Glaze:
3 Tablespoons butter
1 Teaspoon vanilla
3 Tablespoons milk
Powdered Sugar

Mix enough powdered sugar until it becomes glaze like and spread over cake.
