This recipe for banana cake with chocolate is very delicious and easy to make. The cake is one of our most favorite and we have made it several times for both birthday parties and other special occasions. The mashed bananas, in the cake, makes the cake very moist and gives it a wonderful taste. If you have a couple of extra bananas, which are starting to get a bit overripe, you can easily use them to make this cake.

Normally if we have some overripe bananas, we use them to make this banana cake, a banana-chocolate shake or some delicious healthy banana pancakes. However, if we can't figure out what to use the bananas for, we simply just bag them and save them in the freezer - we have made a very simple guide how to do this - this way we never have to throw out bad bananas.
