Chocolate-Bottom Banana Square

This is another popular cake among bloggers...

Nothing will goes wrong when chocolate and banana added together, a very soft, moist and flavourful cake. When talk about the cake texture, i don't really appreciate it as I find it was too soft (Chinese better describe this -软绵绵), maybe due to i changed a bit of the recipe.
