Chocolate Chip and Orange Banana Bread recipe

Make these nutty and chocolaty bars for a change from classic Christmas cookies. They are easy to make and come out addictively delicious. Be sure to make enough, not only kids love them, grown-ups also can't stop reaching more.

Enjoy your banana with melted chocolate and low-fat vanilla yogurt.

Literally means "white food". Blancmange is a delicate, quivering snow-white pudding that goes back to the 16th century that was extremely popular in the Victorian age.

Perfect in the fall when pumpkins start appearing in the markets. The cookies turn out cake-like and golden. The gentle mix of pumpkin and cinnamon works well with the chocolate chips.

I have made this recipe for more than ten times, they are always great. I love them all the time!

Cayenne and chocolate make a nice combo in this cookie from Paula Tuchscherer-Jones of Milwaukee; they would provide an interesting complement when plated with more traditional cookies.
