Banana & Chocolate-Sauce Muffins

A good use for the over-ripe bananas at the bottom of the fruit bowl, these
delicious muffins are quick and easy to make, and can double as both a healthy snack and a wicked treat with the optional chocolate sauce!

Makes 12

Ingredients:

For the muffins:

2 cups vegetable oil
4 cups caster sugar
8 large eggs
12 mashed ripe bananas
8 cups all-purpose (plain) flour
4 teaspoons baking soda (bicarbonate of soda)
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the chocolate sauce:

1 pound (454g) milk chocolate
1 cup milk
1/2 cup whipped cream

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350F (180C, Gas Mark 4). Lightly grease and flour a muffin tin.

Combine the oil and sugar in a large bowl, then beat in the eggs and
bananas.

Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt together and add them to
the mixture, followed by the milk and vanilla. Mix all the ingredients together lightly.

Spoon the batter into the muffin tins, filling them about 3/4 of the way. Bake 15 - 17 minutes.

While baking the muffins, prepare the chocolate sauce topping by melting the
chocolate over simmering water in a double-boiler (or in the microwave). Once the chocolate is melted, remove it from the boiler and add the milk and  whipped cream.

When the muffins are done, serve them whilst still warm and drizzle them
with the chocolate sauce.
