Approach
Banana cake in a cup
Mash the banana with a fork and, in a bowl, mix it into an even batter with all the other ingredients. Add the chocolate. Divide the batter between 2 microwave safe cups. Bake one cake at a time in a cup in the microwave for 1-1.5 minutes. The cake needs to be soft so don’t let it cook too much. Decorate the cakes with the extra chocolate pieces and whipped cream. Enjoy!
