White Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Dang, that is a mouthful.

But it is an oh-so-delicious mouthful.

It's no secret that I tend to put a little too much on my plate, from time to time. And unfortunately, the things that seem to go by the wayside are all the baking-related endeavors that I have planned for myself.

My sister got me a drunken cupcakes cookbook for my birthday. It has about a million recipes in it that I am dying to try out and report back about. But I haven't had time.

The only real baking that I got around to do this week was out of necessity--I had a mess of bananas taunting me from my fruit basket. When I bought them, I had every intention of eating them. But then better things came along. Baked things, I'm guessing.

So, I had to do something with them. I can't just throw them away. And I'm leaving in... oh, about 20 minutes to head up to the bay area for a week. So, my taste buds and I set out on a mission...

And I bring you the results. The soooo freaking delicious results.
