Spice made this Chocolate Banana Bread the other day. She found the recipe on Sweet Savory Life blog, which I think she reached through Tastespotting. Have you ever been to this site? It is like food porn. I go on religiously every day at work and just think of all the delicious things I could be making/eating. It is also a great way to find new blogs and recipes!
This recipe was very moist and very banana-y. It uses two whole bananas! Get out of town! The result was pure deliciousness, since I really like banana. However, if the banana flavor gets to you, tone it down a notch and kick one of the bananas out of the baking fun. This bread was great, but I think it could have used a bit more time in the oven, as it was pretty gooey.
