Moist Chocolate Banana Bread

Moist Chocolate Banana Bread is an everyday winner for dessert, as a tea time treat – perfect to use up your over ripe bananas and create a decadent chocolaty treat

Moist Chocolate Banana Bread

I would always say yes for a slice of Banana Bread and this Chocolate Banana Bread is no exception ! The bread is soft, moist and there really is no need for butter or any kind of spread.

The chocolate almost oozes out from the bread as you slice it. Totally delicious and another very easy recipe. I used my favorite Banana Bread recipe, made some tweaks and doubt I will ever make the plain bread again.

I've had chocolate chip banana bread, but not chocolate banana bread. I like this twist! It does look very moist. Thanks for sharing!

Yum! Is it rich? I'm wondering if it would be too rich for breakfast. Thanks for sharing at the Happiness Is Homemade party! Cathy APeekIntoMyParadise.com
