This is awesome and tastes like cake. My daughter and I each made a batch. She used milk chocolate chips and I used the semi-sweet. Yum!!

Holy cow I just tried this recipe a couple hours ago and it is fantastic!!! I had some extra bananas so i figured I would give it a whirl. It is so yummy a recipe that I will make again. I did use a bunt pan and it came out perfectly (took about 70 minutes cook time). I make and freeze cakes during the holidays for gift baskets and I think this recipe will be one that I use this year instead of just plain ole banana bread. Thank you so much for sharing :)

OMG...this really should be called "Death by Chocolate Chips and Bananas" bread ; ) ! This recipe is just heavenly! The combination of chocolate and bananas is right on...and the sour cream makes it absolutely decadent! I took a loaf to work and it was promptly wolfed down (hee hee, my boss's granddaughter pronounced it "the BEST thing you ever baked!")...then I shared some with a friend at home, where it was promptly wolfed down. Watch out for "wolves" when you make this ; )

Very moist and very good. I halved the recipe and I made 14 muffins but the cooking time for me was 20 minutes. My DH really liked them.
