Instructions :
1. Set the oven rack to the lower position. Preheat to 375 °F. Line a 12 muffin cup tin with paper cups or lightly coat the tin with cooking spray.
2. In a medium-sized bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt, ¾ cup chopped walnuts, and 1 cup chocolate chips. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl or stand mixer, cream the butter until light and fluffy, 30 to 60 seconds. Add in sugar and beat until dissolved 60 seconds. Beat in one egg at a time, until combined.
4. Stir in vanilla, yogurt, milk, and mashed bananas until combined. Gently mix in dry ingredients, until just combined, do not overmix.
5. Fill each muffin cup to the brim, then allow to sit for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts and chocolate chips, about 5 to 6 chips on top.
