Learn how to Make this Moist and Easy One Bowl Chocolate Chip Banana Cake Recipe. Do not throw away overripe bananas and make this delicious melt in your mouth Chocolate Chip studded Banana cake instead!
I like how moist and wonderful this banana cake turns out in spite of the simplicity of making the recipe. I am a fan of Butter Cakes and being able to use melted butter in this not only takes the taste of the cake to an another level, it also makes the process quite easier. You dont have the hassle to keep the butter at room temperature nor do you need to cream with the sugar first. I just take out the butter straight from the refrigerator, cut them into cubes and weigh in grams before melting it for 50-60 secs in the microwave. Allow it to cool down though else it might cook the eggs.
