Sandy, I am not a baker and would like to know---- this sounds really great except my husband and myself do not like the taste of coffee. Do you think that this would work without the coffee liquer? Could you substitute chocolate instead? What do you think?

That's a great idea Kellygirl. Chocolate goes great with bananas anyway. As you can note in my recipe, the liqueuris optional. Not using it would also make this recipe very kid friendly. I never thought about adding chocolate, thanks for the idea!
