1 & 1/3 cups granulated sugar

1 cup whole sour cream

1/4 cup butter {soften at room temperature for one hour}

4 large eggs*

4 medium ripe bananas

2 teaspoons good vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a bundt pan or two 8x4 loaf pans with baking spray; set aside.

Peel and mash bananas with a fork; set aside. Beat sugar, sour cream, butter, and eggs together in mixing bowl on low speed for 1 minute. Beat in flour, baking soda, and salt on medium speed for 1 minute. Beat in bananas and vanilla on low speed for 30 seconds. Stir in chocolate chips by hand.

Spread batter in prepared baking pan and place in center of preheated oven for approximately 35-40 minutes or until light brown on top and toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.
