This is a great way to use ripe bananas and it is an easy to make cake that incorporates all of the flavors of the "Chunky Monkey" icecream that many of us love. This makes a very moist tender healthy and yummy cake! You can use greek yogurt or plain if you cannot find greek.

This cake was amazing! It was so moist and flavorful. The chocolate, peanut butter, and banana flavors were perfect together. I will definitely be making this cake again.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the flavors were bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The chocolate and peanut butter flavors were great together, and the cake was very moist. I might try making it again with less sugar next time.

I made this cake for my son's birthday and it was a huge success! He and his friends loved it. The cake was moist and flavorful, and the frosting was rich and creamy. It was a bit time-consuming to make, but it was worth it.
