Delicious, not too sweet chocolate muffins! Made as is but added only 1/2 cup mini chocolate-chips. Made 24 medium muffins out of the batter. Only thing missing was when to add the milk and vinegar - I added it at step 7. The muffins are moist and delicious! Thanks Kit!

I had to wait a few days to make these cause I hadn't noticed in the ingredients that it called for 2 ripe bananas and mine needed to 'age' a little longer. This was worth the wait. I got 12, good-sized, domed muffins with a nice crumb. Chocolatey, but not over the top with a nice flavour from the bananas. This is an excellent muffin.
