Banana Chocolate Muffins with Chocolate Chips

These muffins are mega-chocolatey. And that chocolate richness complements the banana flavor perfectly - together they are very balanced and delicious. In addition, the bananas make the crumb of the muffins moist and juicy.

And I can say that they can be a great base for cupcakes - with chocolate, caramel or vanilla buttercream.

As with almost all banana baked goods, the bananas should be well ripe, you can even use overripe ones - they are more flavorful.

These muffins are very easy and quick to make - even a novice baker can manage them.
