Double Chocolate Banana Muffins

September is here!  Cooler temperatures means making friends with my oven again and this morning we celebrated with muffins! This is a wonderful old Taste of Home recipe. 

Double Chocolate Banana Muffins
1 1/2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. baking cocoa
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
2 mashed bananas
1/3 c. oil
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1 c. mini chocolate chips

Mash bananas, add sugar, oil and egg and stir well.  Add dry ingredients into the bowl and stir together until just moistened.  Fill greased or paper lined muffin cups 3/4 full.  Bake at 350 for 20-25 min.

Note:  The vanilla is my addition.  I also like to make these with 1/2 whole wheat flour.  They get a dense flavor, but you sacrifice some of the height of the muffin this way.  I also like big chocolate chips in mine.
