Moist chocolate banana cupcake

Another chocolate banana cupcake to present, this round i finally got the taste i want. It taste like brownie very moist with a tint of banana and chocolate taste. The portion was very well combined not too strong of banana and not too strong of chocolate. All i can it absolutely yummy! It can be eaten warm and cold. A definite recipes that i will keep.
