RecipesBREADJun 3Written By Malu Bonifacio

This Chocolate Banana Cake recipe is very easy to make. It is a delectable one layer cake that is moist with a little crunch at the top. The dark chocolate blends well while the brown sugar crust adds to its scrumptiousness.

Have you tried using streusel in cakes or cupcakes? It really enhances the flavour and perfectly complements the banana and chocolate ingredients.
