5 PointsPlus (Old plan)

A very soft, over-ripe medium banana covered with brown spots will yield about 1/2 cup mashed. Be sure to thoroughly mash the banana until it's almost liquid before measuring 1/2 cup.

Turn this into a chocolate chip cake by adding 1 - 2 teaspoons mini semisweet chocolate chips before microwaving. Be sure to add 1 to 2 Points with this addition.
