Chocolate Chip Banana Cookies, aka: Use for Bad Bananas. Introduced by Monica Amster.


2 dozen.

Ingredients: 
2 cups flour (heaping slightly is ok)
1 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp corn starch
1 tsp salt
1/2 c. butter, softened
2 ripe (GOING BAD!!) bananas, peeled
1 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 c. chocolate chips
*Optional: coconut flakes to top, if you like that taste!


Instructions: 
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Cream butter, bananas, and sugars together until light and fluffy; beat in vanilla.
  3. Add and mix: flour, baking soda, corn starch, and salt.
  4. Stir in chocolate chips.
  5. Suggested refrigerate for 30 minutes (ok to not; also works if you do it over-night).
  6. Line trays with parchment paper (or you'll def have a mess if you bake directly on the pan), and use a spoon to scoop the dough onto the tray (don't bother rolling: too sticky).  *If desired, press a pinch of coconut flakes onto the tops of each clump.
  7. Bake 9-10 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
  8. Allow to cool completely.

  1. Keep cookies small (seriously like mom bite sized) or else they remain mushy and do not set!

  2. I also do this in a baking pan as bars. Takes 25 to bake; butter and flour the pan, first!
