Nothing tops old-fashioned banana bread, except maybe this chocolate version! Each slice is studded with nuts. —Connie Deke, DeWitt, Nebraska

Eliminated the nuts & added 1 cup of dark chocolate chips. Turned out perfect! Moist & flavorful!

Very yummy. I cut the sugar by almost half and it was still good. Some say it might be bland. Great way to hide the banana favor.

I love peanut butter and bananas. Instead of nuts I added chopped Reese's peanut butter cups. I also used buttermilk instead of regular milk. I can't explain to you how fantastic this is. Chocolate, peanut butter and bananas. This bread is dense but so moist. Love it Love it. Try the Reese's it is so good.

This is how I made it, I substituted cinnamon applesauce for the butter but left everything else the same! Lower fat and YUMMY! We nver have left overs and it is so moist you have to eat it quick. I have added cherry chips and butterscotch chips and called it Banana split bread!

Excellent! I used dark chocolate baking cocoa and had to use (fat free)buttermilk because my regular milk was bad :P but the results are AWESOME! Next time, I'm going to throw in some chocolate chips!

What a wonderful way to use up ripe bananas and satisfy a taste for chocolate. I will be making this again many times.

Try throwing in some white chocolate chips for a little indulgence.

I used evaporated milk and added 1 Hershey's chocolate bar, 1/3 cup of peanut butter chips & mini chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of Heath toffee bits. Who says you can't have dessert for breakfast.
