Monkey Cake

If you have some browning bananas and chocolate chips, this is a tasty dessert to throw together that is very kid friendly (though my husband loves it too).

4 or 5 Ripe Bananas
3 Carrots, peeled
3/4 Cup Light Brown Sugar
2 Tbsps Vegetable Oil
1/4 Skim Milk
1 Egg and 1 Egg White
2 Tsp Vanilla
1 Tsp Cinnamon
1 Tsp Baking Soda
1/4 Tsp Salt
1 3/4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 1/2 Cups Chocolate Chips

Puree the bananas and carrots in a food processor.  It will not be perfectly smooth but be sure all large chunks are gone.  Stir together puree, brown sugar, oil, milk, and vanilla until well blended.  Add cinnamon, baking soda, salt and flour.  Stir until just blended, it will be lumpy.  Fold in 3/4 of a cup of chocolate chips.

Pour batter into a greased 13 x 9 cake pan.  Sprinkle the remaining 3/4 of a cup of chocolate chips over the top of the cake.

Bake the cake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes until cake tester comes out of the center clean.
