Chocolate Chip Banana Cake

• 3 cups flour
• 2-1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 3 ripe bananas, mashed
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup cream
• 1-1/2 cups sugar
• 4 eggs
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 12 oz. pkg. chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Generously grease and flour a 12 cup bundt pan; set it aside. In large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the chocolate chips. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. By hand, stir in the chocolate chips.

Pour into the prepared pan. Bake at 325 degrees F for 65-75 minutes or until the cake is firm and set and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan. Immediately set the pan onto a dishtowel that has been soaked in water and gently wrung out. Let the pan sit for 5 minutes, then turn it out onto a serving plate. Cool completely before serving.
