Banana Bread

Banana Bread

This is the only banana bread recipe I ever use, have been making it since I was a teen! I love it so much that I feel no need to try another recipe! I love adding chocolate chips, got the idea from my Aunt Rosie…she always added chocolate chips in her banana bread. To make it extra special I sometimes sprinkle mini chocolate chips on the top of batter.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
I first made these cookies when I was newly married, my in-laws asked my hubby where we got them, when my hubby told them I made them….I knew that I was indeed a baker, or that at least I had it in me!;) Since then I have added many more recipes to my collection, but this one is the best peanut butter cookie I have ever made!
