Banana Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffin Tops

This recipe is adapted from our Banana Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffin recipe and yes, it’s a good as it sounds. Again, tops are the way to go.

This is sweet enough, it’s almost like a cake. In fact, you can serve it with whipped cream or ice cream and little fudge topping for a special treat.

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 brown sugar
2/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup ripe bananas, mashed (about two smaller bananas)
1 teaspoon banana flavor
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

1. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
2. In another bowl, mash the bananas. Whisk two large eggs and add those to the bananas. Add the oil, milk, brown sugar, and sour cream. Blend well. Stir in the nuts and chocolate chips.
3. With a spatula, mix the dry ingredients into the liquid mixture. Stir until just combined. Spoon the batter into greased muffin top tins.
