Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

This is one of my favorite dessert recipes.  I don't feel as bad when I eat this...it does have fruit, right??



Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2/3 cup white sugar
• 1/3 cup butter, softened
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup mashed banana
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions

1. Grease an 8x4 inch loaf pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Add butter, eggs, chocolate chips, and mashed banana. Beat until well blended.
3. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
