Double Chocolate Banana Bread (Bake 1)

double chocolate banana bread

Don’t I just love the sound of DOUBLE chocolate? I guess it did not really matter what came after the chocolate but it was a great bonus that it was banana. I enjoy my banana bread so adding double chocolate to it made me a happy lady. I made this once and was sold. I also brought it to a going away party for one of my colleagues and I got quite a number of compliments and many asked if they could carry some home. What I loved most about this cake was how fudgy and moist it is. The flavour is mostly chocolate with a good burst of bananas. It’s divine, heaven in your mouth. I doubt I’ll ever make plain banana cake again. This recipe is definitely a keeper. This is my 1st post this year on the 30 bakes in 2013 so 29 more to go. Wish me luck  🙂 HAPPY BAKING!!
