Chocolate Chip Pie (4 Star)

Have you ever had chocolate chip pie before? If not, I highly recommend it. I tried making it for the first time two years ago and it has since become an important part of my pie repertoire. If you like fresh, homemade chocolate chip cookies, this pie is even better, I dare say. Serve it warm with a scoop of ice cream melting on top and it's caramel-y, chocolaty, nutty decadence will captivate your taste buds.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread (3 Star)

This is my new favorite thing to make with overripe bananas. Funny thing is, my kids (especially the more picky ones), do not like bananas in baked goods and are not that crazy about peanut butter, either. However, this bread was a huge hit with my pickiest son. He almost refused to try it, but lucky for him, he did try (after several threats and pleadings). Strangely enough, my least picky boy didn't like this that much. Brandon and I love it. Banana, peanut butter, and chocolate is a tasty combination. And as far as quick breads go, this one is on the healthy side of the spectrum.
