Bananarama Cake

This deliciously moist banana cake is one of my most favourite and popular everyday cakes: a banana cake with a chocolatey difference! It also uses up those old bruised bananas! I must admit that I ususally double the mixture, otherwise it doesn't last longer than a day in my house!!

Ingredients:
2 ripe bananas
125g butter
150g sugar
190g self raising flour
60ml milk
1tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
Up to 100g chocolate chips (add more or less to make it as chocolatey as you like it! I usually add the whole 100g!)

Method:
Prep: 10 mins  Cook: 35 mins
1. Grease and line a cake tin.
2. Melt the butter, sugar and vanilla extract in a saucepan.
3. Whilst the butter, sugar and vanilla are melting, mash the bananas. Add the mashed bananas to the melted mix.
4. Beat the egg, add and mix well.
5. Sieve the flour, and mix in.
6. Add the milk and chocolate chips.
7. Pour into the cake tin.
6. Bake at Gas mark 3; 150 C fan oven; 170 C regular oven, for 35 mins or until a skewer comes out clean.
7. Leave to cool and enjoy this sweet banana chocolate extravaganza!!
