Tips:

Use ripe bananas for best flavor: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use chocolate chips or chunks: You can use either chocolate chips or chunks in this recipe. If using chunks, chop them into small pieces so that they distribute evenly throughout the muffins.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that your muffins are cooked through.
Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving: This will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.

These banana mocha chip muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They're perfect for on-the-go mornings or for packing in lunches. With their moist texture, sweet banana flavor, and rich chocolate chips, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
