Preparation
Step 1
In a bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Combine bananas, milk, peanut butter, egg, oil and vanilla; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until combined. Add chocolate chips.
Spoon into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans.
Bake at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until bread tests done. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
When completely cooled, wrap each loaf in foil and refrigerate overnight.
The next day, melt peanut butter and butter in a small saucepan; remove from the heat. Stir in confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla. Frost loaves; sprinkle with nuts and chocolate chips. Yield: 2 loaves.
