Have a craving for a super moist piece of delicious chocolate cake? Cravings subside – I got this.

This Moist Chocolate Banana Cake reminds me of a classic dessert that I think we all enjoyed as a kid. I’m talking about hours of outdoor play followed by quiet and intense devouring of cake – then sprinting out the door once again for more play.

The banana addition to this recipe most certainly helps in the moistness factor, but also gives it that unique taste. So super good!

This cake from scratch recipe takes simple and common ingredients, just one bowl and bakes for only 35 minutes – meaning you can have that piece of moist chocolate cake in no time.
