Haven't had banana cream in many years. I liked it but it was never my
favorite. I have never seen it with nuts and when I read your post my
first thought was "yuck" but as I thought about it, roasted and chopped
macadamias sound pretty good as long as they didn't get soggy.
Someone mentioned coconut. Shredded coconut of any kind is a nasty
texture to me but I do love the flavor of it in Asian food and things
like pina coladas.
