BANANA BREAD WITH WALNUTS AND CHOCOLATE CHIPS!

JUST IN CASE this turns out wonderfully and my son in law begs my daughter to cook it…..I combined the two recipes below and kinda improvised which I always do with cooking or less familiar baking….extra ingredients were walnuts instead of pecans, plus chocolate chips plus 6 crumbled chocolate chip cookies. I used brown demerara sugar and 4 eggs and made two good size loaves.

Frost this cake with your favorite frosting.
Ingredients:
•1/2 cup margarine, softened
•1 1/4 cups brown sugar
•2 eggs
•3 squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
•2 cups all-purpose flour
•1/2 teaspoon baking soda

•1 teaspoon baking powder
•1 1/2 cups mashed, ripe bananas
•1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Preparation:
Cream margarine and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time. Beat thoroughly after each. Stir in the cooled melted chocolate. Sift dry ingredients together and add to the batter alternately with the mashed bananas; stir in vanilla. Pour into 2 greased and floured 9-inch layer cake pans. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until cake tests done. Frost with a fluffy white frosting.
