Melt butter in a 12 inch heavy skillet over medium heat, then add bananas in 1 layer and sprinkle with brown sugar.
Increase heat to medium-high and cook bananas, gently turning once and shaking skillet occasionally, until sugar is caramelized, 3-4 minutes.
Divide bananas among 4 dessert bowls, leaving any remaining caramel in skillet.
Add cream to skillet and boil over medium heat, stirring, until caramel is dissolved.
Add chocolate with a pinch of salt and whisk until melted.
Top bananas with scoops of ice cream, then drizzle with some chocolate sauce, then sprinkle with nuts.
There will be extra sauce.
