In a large bowl, cream butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in
the bananas, peanut butter, milk and vanilla. Combine the flour,
baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture just until moistened.
Fold in chips.
Fill greased or paper-lined miniature muffin cups three-fourths full.
Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 350F for 14-16 minutes or
until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for
5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.
Yield: 6 dozen.
Tip
Banana Basics
Look for plump bananas that are evenly yellow-colored. Green bananas
are under-ripe, while a flecking of brown flecks indicates ripeness.
If bananas are too green, place in a paper bag until ripe. Adding an
apple to the bag will speed the process. Store ripe bananas at room
temperature. To prevent bruises, a banana hook or hanger is a great
inexpensive investment. For longer storage, you can place ripe
bananas in a tightly sealed plastic bag and refrigerate. The peel
will become brown but the flesh will remain unchanged. One pound of
bananas equals about 3 medium or 1-1/3 cups mashed.
