Rochelle Brownlee of Big Timber, Montana shares the recipe for these moist cupcakes with milk banana flavor. The cocoa powder in the frosting boosts the chocolate flavor while the melted chocolate gives it a creamy texture, making it easier to spread.

This was very good. I used apple bananas and baked in a pan.

The cupcakes were a big hit at the office, very easy to make and tasty. My only negative view is that it takes a day for the flavors to mellow, if you have one right after frosting the banana flavor is waaaaay to strong, next day they are perfect though.

Mine came out dry and more like a muffin. I used the recipe just the was it says. But it did have a nice taste.

I think it tasted like muffins more than cupcakes? Did I do something wrong?

Made this with applesauce instead of banana--very bad allergy (I know no banana flavor) and used buttermilk instead of the regular milk--These were SO GOOD! Nice and moist. Definite keeper in my book! <3

I haven't made the recipe yet and I will definitely try it but I wanted to suggest a quick way to have a chocolate banana cake. I used a milk chocolate or you could use any kind of chocolate cake mix, a small box of banana pudding mix, 4 eggs, 3/4 cup oil and 3/4 cup water or milk. Mix those up and bake according to the directions on the box - it's a moist banana chocolate cake.
