Chocolate Chip Banana Pound Cake

Happy Father's Day!

My Dad loves bananas and I think at this point I've worn out every banana bread recipe out there! So... I made him a pound cake! I've never made pound cake before and since I only had enough bananas to make one loaf, I didn't get to actually taste it. So, I'm not sure how it turned out. However, it smelled divine and was very heavy so I think it was a success! My mom said the term "pound cake" comes from an old recipe which literally called for one pound of butter, one pound of sugar, one pound of flour, etc... Lucky for my Dad's arteries this cake does not contain a pound of butter! Although, like I said, it was certainly heavy! I will have to wait for the reviews to see how it tastes...
