Banana Chocolate Cake~bread

This is a great recipe if you have extra bananas that are about to go bad or are too overripe to eat. You can also customize it to suit your taste. I happen to think brown sugar works better than plain sugar for dishes involving bananas. I changed and halved this recipe since I have a small family you can easily double it and produce a bigger cake. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
4 ripe bananas
1 teaspoon vanilla powder or extract
2 bars of chocolate

Materials: Measuring cups and spoons, hand mixer or blender, whisk or fork

baking pan.

Method:

Step 1: Preheat oven at 350 degrees

Step 2: grease and flour pan

Step 3: Put salt, flour and baking soda in a bowl and mix by hand.

Step 4: In a blender add the butter and sugar and mix until it resembles crumbs.

Step 5: Add egg, vanilla powder, sliced up banana/pieces and crumbled up chocolate to the blender.

Step 6: pulse until it looks like a smoothie.

Step 7: Add "smoothie" to flour mixture use whisk and combine until smooth.

Step 8: Bake for 30-45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Tips:

Blender is a lot easier than hand mixer and will combine ingredients a lot more easily.
You can allow it to cool and frost it or add some powdered sugar
Overripe bananas work well in the dish
You can also add some cocoa powder to flour mixture to add more of a chocolate flavor.
You can use 3 ounces of chocolate instead of bars

Enjoy!
