1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter (rm temp)

Butter and flour a loaf pan
in bowl with mixer on high speed beat 1/2 cup butter and sugar until fluffy (aprx 3 mins) scraping bowl occasionally. Add eggs and beat until well blended. Stir in bananas.

In small bowl mix flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Add to banana mixture and mix just until evenly moistened. Stir in nuts if wanted. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in 350 degree F oven until toothpick comes out clean when inserted into middle of loaf, 45 to 55 mins.

My mom made this bread today and shared some with me - it was very yummy! She asked me to let you know that she made it and loved it and said thank you for the recipe! :)
