Banana Chocolate Chips Cake

My family loves to eat banana very much. However, we cant finish the whole bunch of banana, there bound to be 1 or 2 or 3 over-riped banana to be thrown away !! After reading Hugbear, a full-time working mum to 2 boys, who enjoys baking and cooking, sharing her tips and advice in the world of baking. Since i have the ingredients found in her recipe, and with the help from Jayne, we decided to bake one ourselves. We made a few changes from the recipe.
  • 125gm of butter only which is the left-over from the Chococlae Chip cookies
  • 150gm of castor sugar
  • As per my girl's request, i added 2 tbsp choc chips
  • 2 normal size eggs ($1.80 per tray type of size-egg)
  • 3 riped (not over-riped) Del Monte banana
  • No dairy whip cream added as i do not have any in the referigrator
