DECADENT BANANA BREAD RECIPE

I love bananas and chocolate, so this recipe is the perfect combination. It’s banana-y, it’s chocolate, and it’s perfectly rich. Plus, it’s perfect to up your quarantine baking game! It’s a fun (albeit slightly messy) family recipe that everyone can have fun with. So let’s start mashing bananas!
