Dark chocolate has less sugar and can be more affordable.

Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C).

Line a 9 x 5 inches loaf pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, mash the over ripe bananas until smooth.

Add the neutral oil and buttermilk (or yogurt) to the mashed bananas and mix well.

Stir in the light brown sugar, vanilla extract, and instant coffee until combined.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in the dark chocolate chips, reserving some for topping.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
