This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the texture was great. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of chocolate banana cake, but this recipe changed my mind. The cake was moist and fluffy, with a rich chocolate flavor. The bananas added a nice sweetness and the walnuts added a nice crunch. I'll definitely be making this again
