I found this recipe while looking for something to scratch that itch, baked it, and I love it!!! I made a few mods, in case you're interested: 1. I added a third banana because I have the Free World's supply of over-ripe bananas in my freezer and my husband may turn me out of house and home if they don't start getting used. Because of the extra moisture, I had to leave it in the oven for the full 65 minutes, but it came out smelling like Bananas Foster! Yummmmmm! 2. I used 6 tablespoons of buttermilk instead of milk and water because I didn't see any acids in the recipe (aside from the chocolate chips, and I wasn't sure that chocolate in solid form would work) and was concerned that the baking soda wouldn't work without it. 3. I doubled the amount of chocolate because DO I REALLY NEED A REASON? It is CHOCOLATE! (Actually, I did it because I only had giant chips on hand and needed a greater volume to have a more desirable distribution throughout the loaf.) Thanks for a great recipe! It is delicious, moist, satisfying, and exactly the comfort food I needed when I wasn't feeling well!
