This is a great thing!  So, to celebrate, I made these TOO DELICIOUS chocolate chip banana muffins and thought I'd share the recipe with you. :)

Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

1 1/2 cups sugar

1/2 cup butter, softened

3 large eggs

3 medium bananas, mashed

1/2 cup buttermilk

3 cups all-purpose flower

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 package {12 oz} semisweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line and spray approximately 30 muffin cups.  Beat sugar and butter in a  large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.  Add bananas and buttermilk; beat on low speed until blended, about 1 minute.

2. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl; mix well.  Add flour mixture to banana mixture; mix on low speed until just blended.  Stir in chocolate chips.  Use ice cream scoop to spoon into muffin cups.

3. Bake muffins until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and tops are golden brown, about 15 minutes. 

4. Cool and devour {with a tall glass of milk}.
