Hi all,
Some time ago I sent this recipe to the list; in fact, it may have been a
re-post from someone else, I don't remember now. Today I discovered that adding
cinnamon makes these bars even better, and that they work beautifully as
cupcakes. So, here's the updated recipe for chocolate chip banana bars, which
have become one of my favorite desserts ever. They work just as well without
the cinnamon, and I recommend trying half with and half without (that's the
beauty of making them as cupcakes). If you do, remember to cut the cinnamon
amount in half.
Yield: 9x13-inch cake, or about 19 cupcakes
Ingredients:
• 2 &3/4 cups flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 &1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 &1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
• 1 &1/4 cups sugar
• 3/4 cups unsalted butter, room temperature
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 &1/2 cups mashed ripe banana (4-6 bananas)
• 1 to 1 and 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Procedure:
• With a mixer, blend sugar and butter. Add eggs, vanilla, and
banana.
• Stir in dry ingredients and mix well. Add chocolate chips.
• Pour thick batter into a greased 9x13-inch pan, or fill
muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake in a 350º oven. Bake 25 to 30 minutes for cake, 20
minutes for cupcakes, or until a a cake tester inserted in the center comes out
clean. Let cool five minutes and cut into bars for cake, remove from tins for
cupcakes.
Have a great day,
