Simple Moist Chocolate Cupcakes (Half banana version)😁



A simple and really delicious chocolate cupcake recipe. It's so moist that it melts the minute it enters your mouth. =D

  Eating this cupcake plain is simply so satisfying. Dipping it in coffee, topping it with whipped cream or icing, yummy! As for me, i had some leftover bananas in the fridge, so why not just toss em into the cupcake? Chocolate banana cupcake babe~~ I like it when the bananas are still warm and kinda oozing out from the cupcake. Well of course the bananas are optional, but u can toss some of your leftover fruits into the batter too! No prob. :]
(So this is the half banana version i'm making)

  The picture may look a lil disgusting or less appetizing, but trust me. It's delicious! 

Now let's get started~ ;)
