  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the mashed bananas, sugar, and softened butter.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies and chocolate chips if using.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

For best results, don’t overmix the batter. Tent with foil if the top browns too quickly.
