Ingredients:  
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 cup mashed bananas (around 2-3 medium bananas)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly butter a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.

In a medium bowl, beat together sugar and butter until creamy. Beat in
the eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Add the
mashed bananas, sour cream and vanilla extract, and stir until smooth
and creamy-looking.

In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt and
baking powder. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir
until just barely combined. Fold in chocolate chips, if using.

Bake in preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes. Bread is done when the
top is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center of
the loaf comes out clean. Allow to cool on a wire rack for at least 10
minutes before slicing.
