Fuzzypugs Raspberry Dark Chocolate Banana Bread

Submitted by fuzzypugs

"Not your plain old banana bread. We ate the whole loaf in 2 days because it was so good. The dark chocolate chips are creamy and distinctive in flavor against the raspberries which add a really fresh flavor burst! (and a fun surprise!) I last made this recipe on a whim at 9:30 at night. The whole prep time to oven is less than 5 minutes which is any busy person's dream! FYI: Make sure to use SUPER RIPE bananas. (blackened skin, the nastier looking the better) Recipezaar won't let me choose ripe bananas as an ingredient."
