Chocolate Banana Cupcakes Recipes

This Banana Chocolate Cupcake recipe makes 24 regular-sized cupcakes which is perfect for a large gathering or birthday party. The batter is a snap to make because you just stir the wet ingredients together in one bowl and the dry ingredients together in another bowl. Mix the two and you are done. The batter is quite thin so use an ice cream scoop or small ladle to fill the muffin cups. Now while the recipe calls for cocoa powder, it doesn't specify which kind, which means you can use either regular unsweetened or Dutch-processed. As always, keep in mind that the type and brand of cocoa powder you use will determine the flavor of the cupcakes, so use the best you can afford. The other ingredient in this batter to take note of, is that the fat is in liquid form (canola or corn oil). The reason I bring this up is because oil makes for a moist and tender cupcake that stores very well, with the added advantage that they can be refrigerated and still stay soft.

These are excellent. I made these for a week I needed to be on a low fiber diet, but they could be made with whole wheat and nuts for more nutrition and taste. I made the icing with almond butter and melted chocolate chips to get the nutty taste in there.

I found these on www.AimeesAdentures.com. They sounded delicious, and I thought they needed to be here..

Please forgive me for this... it's still a work in progress and i just needed somewhere to save it for now... I will fix it later. I promise!

I love trying powdered peanut butter in recipes. It adds so much flavor, without all of the calories and fat.
