Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed until creamy. Add bananas, egg and vanilla. Continue to beat and scrape bowl often until well mixed. Reduce the speed to low and add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and oil. Beat until well mixed. Place one tortilla on a large surface or plate. Spread 1/6 of the batter onto the tortilla and top with chocolate chips. Roll burrito and place in a greased 2-quart baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas. For the glaze, melt the chocolate chips and butter with the cocoa in a 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until melted (4 to 6 minutes). Drizzle glaze over the burritos. Bake in the oven 20-25 minutes until golden. You may sprinkle powdered sugar on top, if desired.
