Banana Bread

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 cup bananas
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

Optional: 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with non-stick baking spray and set aside.

In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs, mashed bananas, milk, and vanilla extract.

In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and mix just until combined. Do not over mix.

Transfer to the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the top with chocolate chips, if desired. Bake for 60 to 65 min or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (Careful not to insert near a chocolate chip.)

Cool in the pan for 10 min before removing to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing and serving.  Serves 8-10
