Reduce speed to low; continue beating, scraping bowl often, until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. By hand, stir in ½ cup chocolate chips. Spoon batter into 5 greased 5½ x 3-inch mini-loaf pans. Bake for 35 to 42 minutes or until center crack is dry when touched. Cool 10 minutes.
Remove from pans. (Bread can be frozen unglazed. Remove from freezer; bring to room temperature before glazing.) For glaze, in 2-quart saucepan combine ½ cup chocolate chips, 1 Tbsp butter and water. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar, ¼ tsp vanilla and salt until smooth and creamy. Drizzle _each_ warm loaf with glaze. Cool completely. Source: Kyosho Connick, FidoNet Cooking Echo Courtesy of Shareware RECIPE CLIPPER 1⅒
