Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

I originally got this recipe from my sister, Jane, but she didn't include bananas in her recipe. We happen to love the banana/chocolate combination, though........ and it helps me use up those over ripe bananas :-)

CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA MUFFINS

3/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup milk
3 ripe bananas (mashed)
2 cups flour
2 cups coconut
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
approx 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Beat butter, sugar and egg together. Add vanilla and bananas. In separate bowl, mix dry ingredients (except for chocolate chips). Add dry ingredients alternately with milk. Mix until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips.

Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full. Bake at 350 deg for 15-18 minutes. Makes 2 dozen.
