Chocolate Banana
Ripe banana keeps this dough naturally moist, while a combination of cocoa powder and chocolate protein powder gives it a deep brownie like flavor without needing any melted chocolate.

Notes
The riper the banana, the softer and sweeter these turn out. Freckled, very soft bananas work best
