Chocolate Banana Muffins

These Chocolate Banana Muffins are ridiculous. Ridiculously good that is! I mean chocolate and banana go together like PB & J, peas & carrots, Sonny & Cher for pity's sake. What I'm trying to tell you is that these muffins are calling your name. Don't ignore them. These are perfect for school lunches. Wrap and freeze individually so they're ready to throw in lunch bags in the morning. That is if you can keep them on hand long enough to freeze. Chocolate Banana Muffins 2 cups …
