Banana Bread....with or without chocolate

I LOVE banana bread. I especially love it with chocolate!! I have one son that will not eat it with chocolate chips and two that are like me and love it with the chocolate. I always make the banana bread in my 4 loaf mini loaf pan and make one without chocolate. The bread doesn't last long around here!! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
