CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA NUT MUFFINS

I adapted this recipe with a few of my own changes from a Cooking for 2 Magazine recipe, so it is great for when you just want to mix up 1/2 dozen muffins. These are a very moist muffin with just enough chocolate and nut flavor. Tastes best fresh out of the oven.

Moist, delicious, and at least quasi-healthful. I was very pleased with how they turned out.
