Chocolate-Banana Mini Loaves

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 6-by-3-inch miniature loaf pans with cooking spray ; set aside.

Place the banana chips in a large zip-top plastic bag. Press out the air and seal. Using a rolling pin , roll over the chips until crushed.

Whisk the muffin mix and cocoa in a large bowl. Add the chocolate milk, oil and eggs, stirring until smooth. Stir in the crushed banana chips and chocolate chips . Divide the batter evenly between the pans.

Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pans on a rack for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the glaze: Mix the confectioners' sugar, heavy cream and banana extract in a small bowl. Drizzle the glaze over the loaves and let cool completely.
