			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blogs. Love them. Read them daily. I have many favorites and I am huge fan of the <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/" target="_blank">Pioneer Woman</a>. I came across her blog through photography but discovered her amazing cooking talents as well. She recently started a new blog call <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen" target="_blank">Tasty Kitchen</a>. On this site you can find an abundance of delicious tried and true recipes. While browsing through Tasty Kitchen I came across this<a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen/recipes/breads/banana-chocolate-chip-muffins-2/" target="_blank"> recipe</a> for Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins. Well, I happened to have some pretty ripe bananas sitting on the counter and chocolate chips in the pantry so the timing was perfect.  I grabbed the ingredients, cracked, beat, stirred, sprinkled&#8230;had a few licks and in the end, I had delicious Muffins! These are very moist and the chocolate and banana together? Perfect! Thanks to Wendy for adding the recipe!  You can find me at <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen" target="_blank">Tasty Kitchen</a> as member <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen/members/?s=dsolzer" target="_blank">dsolzer</a>!</p>

<p>Ingredients I used for this <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen/recipes/breads/banana-chocolate-chip-muffins-2/" target="_blank">recipe</a>.</p>
<p>1 cup Unsalted Butter</p>
<p>1 cup sugar</p>
<p>3 whole ripe bananas</p>
<p>2 whole eggs</p>
<p>2 cups flour</p>
<p>1 teaspoon baking soda</p>
<p>1 teaspoon baking powder</p>
<p>1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt</p>
<p>5 tablespoons Milk</p>
<p>1 teaspoon Cinnamon</p>
<p>1 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips</p>

<p>Cream Butter and Sugar</p>

<p>Add in the bananas -</p>
<p>Bananas remind me of the Chiquita Banana Stickers we would pull</p>
<p>off the bunch and stick to our foreheads as kids. Then we would break into song of course!</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m Chiquita banana and I&#8217;ve come to say &#8211; Bananas have to ripen in a certain way-</p>
<p>When they are fleck&#8217;d with brown and have a golden hue -</p>
<p>Bananas taste the best and are best for you &#8211; You can put them in a salad -</p>
<p>You can put them in a pie-aye &#8211; Any way you want to eat them &#8211; It&#8217;s impossible to beat them</p>
<p>But, bananas like the climate of the very, very tropical equator &#8211; So you should never put bananas in the refrigerator.&#8221;</p>
<p>Of course you know that song?</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://subjunctive.net/klog/images/2009/chiquita.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="311" /></p>
<p>How about now? Does this image help? Good. Now back to the recipe!</p>

<p>Add in the rest of the ingredients &#8211; see that cinnamon and chocolate chips? Yummy!</p>

<p>Spray muffin tins and add scoops of muffin mix. I prefer Baker&#8217;s Joy.</p>
<p>It contains both oil and flour so you don&#8217;t have to mess with greasing</p>
<p>and flouring the pans. Ok? Ok. Now we bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes</p>
<p>or until they are a pretty golden brown.</p>

<p>While the muffins are baking, I deal with this mess. It&#8217;s all good though because soon</p>
<p>I have these waiting for me&#8230;.</p>
