Banana Fudge Bundt Cake

Ricky loves banana and I love chocolate. This was a great combination. We made this to celebrate when Ricky accepted his new job.

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup shortening
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon slat
1 cup mini-chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups pureed ripe bananas (3-4 medium)
1 container chocolate frosting (or make your own - we loved the triple chocolate frosting we used)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray.
2. Cream sugar and shortening. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat until fluffy.
3. Sift together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture alternately with pureed bananas, mixing well. Add mini-chocolate chips.
4. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 50 minutes for until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and cake pulls away from sides of pan.
5. Let stand in pan 10 minutes, then remove from pan.
6. Microwave frosting until its a little bit runny. Drizzle it over the slightly warm cake.
