Wonderful banana chocolate chip bread recipe! I used all butter and added one extra banana just because I didn't want to be left with just one straggler. I baked mine in 3 x 5 pans so I ended up with 7 pans. I only had one that didn't want to come out of the pan. Overall it's a great recipe! Thank you!

Delicious recipe!! This was my 3rd attempt at making banana bread and the first time it worked out! I used butter and margarine instead of shortening (½ cup butter ½ cup becel), I only had about 1 tbls of mayo, I used 1 cup of whole wheat flour and 2 cups regular flour, and by accident I used 2 tsp of baking powder. I also left out the nuts. Slighly healthier and still very moist and delicious! even better then the bakery loaf I normally buy! Will be a favorite of mine!

Truly awesome! It is a very moist bread and can take a little longer than the 50-70 minutes to bake. Made it a second time and made into muffins, bake for only 25 minutes. Super delicious! Big hit with my family.

I make this all the time and every time I make it I get a request for the recipe!! I make mine exactly as the recipe calls for only I use a bundt pan. In addition to chocolate chips, I sometimes cut up pieces of candy bars and add those in. Very delicious and it looks nice as a bundt cake.

This is probably the best banana bread I have made in years. It is SO moist and the chocolate just adds that dessert-y kick to take it to a higher level! Instead of two large loaves, I made one loaf and 3 mini loaves to give away. Per the comments, I used slightly less sugar and also subbed a little bit of the white sugar with brown. Every thing else is as written. Yummy!!!

It must have either been me or my baking powder because mine sank in the middle and browned too much on the outside. I will probably try again and reduce the temp and buy some new baking powder.

I loved this recipe, so did my picky 4 year old who won't eat any sweet breads without chocolate chips. I opted for butter instead of shortening, to make it trans fat free, used half brown and half white sugar and omited the walnuts. It was the best banana bread I've ever eaten! Definitely a keeper!

Fantastic! This was a hit for everyone! Including my Father in law that hates banana bread! The only thing I did different is add real vanilla extract and did not add any nuts!!!

As janice from "friends" would say: OH(pause) MY (pause) GOD!!! I changed it a little but think its a 5 star anyway because i had to make the changes.. since I had milk chocolate chips I used onle 1 1/2 cups sugar.. this was "delicioso" as we say in my country.. this recipe MUST have dropped down from heavan :D UPDATE: when i took my second loaf out of the pan the whole top sticked on to the pan. I HIGHLY RECOMEND THESE TO BE MADE IN MUFFIN PANS WITH MUFFIN PAPERS OR WHATEVER THEY ARE CALLED!! but its still very yummy

I "accidently" doubled the amount of chocolate chips, oops. It was great but next time I'll only add 50% more ;)

This recipe is AMAZING- it's the best banana bread recipe I have found. Don't let the mayo throw you for a loop, you can't even taste it and it makes the bread SOOOO moist!!!

This is a great recipe even without the walnuts and mayonnaise. I didn't have white sugar and used only brown. It still turned out yummy!

Very moist and tasty, even though I mixed up the amounts for the baking soda and baking powder...cooking with an 18 month old can be a little distracting! :)
