Peanut Butter, Banana, Chocolate Chip Cookies |
I had been craving banana bread all week, and I had the perfect over-ripe bananas in the kitchen. The kids wanted cookies. So, I went looking and found a banana, peanut butter, chocolate-chip-cookie recipe at Cook’s Country online and tweaked it to match what I had on hand. I’m going to have to hide some, or they’ll be all gone by the time Don gets home from work… as Emily said, they are SCRUMPTIOUS!
Peanut Butter and Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons butter, softened
2 oz cream cheese, softened
½ light brown sugar
½ sugar
½ organic peanut butter, at room temperature
¼ cup mashed banana
1 egg, at room temperature
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips cookies
Turn oven on to 350 degrees. Put butter and sugars in mixer, then mix for 10 minutes till light and fluffy. Add egg and mix, add peanut butter and mix, then add banana and vanilla, and mix.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, salt, and baking soda. Blend into batter, then fold in chocolate chips. Drop teaspoonfuls of dough, one inch apart, onto cookie sheets covered with parchment paper. Bake for 12-14 minutes, till lightly browned.
These cookies are soft in the center and slightly crunch around the edges, yummm!
I'm joining in this week for Foodie Friday at Designs by Gollum.
