BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP CUPCAKES WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Banana Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting image

I was inspired by a few different banana cupcake recipes before settling on this one. The cream cheese frosting is probably my favorite part; it's just wonderfully decadent on a banana cupcake. Refrigerate cupcakes after frosting. P.S. They taste much better the next day!
