I made this bread so many times, and always received great reviews. I had to cook it a bit longer a few times, but only because the oven I was using was not consistent. Amazing bread!

I really only used this as a base because I really wanted to try the prune for fat substitution. So instead of shortenting I used prune puree and it turned out AMAZING. Best chocolate banana bread I have ever had.

This bread is the BEES KNEES! I made this for the second time tonight and the wolf pack at my house is already drooling at the mouth. Deliciously sinful, OMG. Keeper for like ever!

This chocolate chip banana bread is downright delicious. I made it exactly as the recipe said--although I hesitated on using the shortening... It was a great success! The bread was very, very moist (...probably from all the shortening, haha). Everyone loved it.

Wow....this was so good....my family and I loved it. Halved the recipe, used butter instead of shortening, low fat mayo and mini chocolate chips. Wonderful and very moist on the inside with a nice crust on the outside. A perfect bread. Never used mayo in baked goods before and you would never know except it adds to the moistness. Thanks!

I made the bread with butter instead of shortening and omitted the walnuts. The bread was so moist but it seemed like the chocolate overpowered the taste of the banana. I would definitely use this recipe again to make regular banana bread and I know it would taste great!

This is a very tasty recipe. A quick and easy batter to assemble, my 4 year old granddaughter helped to prepare the batter. I did change a few ingredients. I substituted butter for the shortening and I used 1 cup of sugar, 1/2 cup splenda and 1/2 cup brown sugar. I love nuts, but left them out this time. I may play with the sugar combo some more, but otherwise, I will leave it as is. This recipe is a keeper.

I do not normally bake things, but this came out perfect. I used butter instead of shortening and it worked just fine. Moist but not too moist; very rich!

Great Great Great. People who don't typically like banana bread said they loved this bread. People who claimed they don't usually like chocolate loved this bread. I couldn't find anyone who doesn't usually like bread so I just imagine everyone will like this stuff. Thanks for the recipe.
