Hi
I
would like to give a thumbs up for this.
It’s
definitely a keeper!
The
combination of bananas and chocolate are perfect match and they make cake
absolutely delicious. The cake was
topped up with chocolate chips and walnuts and “Wow!” It’s so pretty and really
made it so hard to resist!!
I
have been seeing this cake everywhere in the internet. Therefore I decided to give it a try.
The
banana fragrant was not as strong as my Banana Chocolate Chips Cake and the
texture was a bit dry and crumbly. Not
sure it is because of the cocoa powder that had covered up the banana aroma and
also caused it to dry…
Anyway,
you can assure that nothing will go wrong when chocolate and banana meets. These 2 are a perfect match!
If I’ll to
bake this again, I’ll increase the amount of milk to 3-4 tbsp on the chocolate
batter as I prefer it to be moister.
As I
modified the recipes coming from various sources and have forgotten exactly this
recipe was adopted from where.
Here goes my modified recipe.
