EASY KIDS' RECIPE FOR FLUFFY BANANA COOKIES
I should rename these to the Houdini cookies, with how fast they vanish from my kitchen. Very fluffy and delicious. My daughter just turned one and loves to help make these. She pulls the paper from the butter, peels the bananas, mashes and mixes. It's so fast and easy. Any time we have a couple bananas going brown we mix up these. The recipe originated as my grandmother's banana bread, but one day I was in a rush and didn't want to wait an hour for the bread to bake so I tossed them in as cookies and we all agreed it came out better this way.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the egg and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- In a bowl, mix the mashed bananas and baking soda. Let sit for 2 minutes. The baking soda will react with the acid in the bananas which in turn will give the cookies their lift and rise.
- Mix the banana mixture into the butter mixture. Mix together the flour, salt, and spices and sift into the butter and banana mixture and mix until just combined.
- Fold into the batter the pecans or chocolate chips if using. Drop in dollops onto parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until nicely golden brown. Let cool on wire racks.
- Makes about 30 cookies.
GRANDMA'S BANANA COOKIES
These cookies were voted an all-time favorite in our family. They can be made any time of the year-bring them to parties, keep them for your family, save one for yourself, save 10 for yourself, whatever you want! I promise everyone will love this delicious balance of sweet but not too sweet. Eat hot, eat cold, eat these whenever. They can be stored in the freezer or in a container.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
- Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Stir mashed banana, sour cream, and vanilla together in another bowl.
- Cream margarine and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Beat in eggs. Mix in banana-sour cream mixture until incorporated. Add dry ingredients until well combined. Stir in nuts.
- Drop small spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared cookie sheet; cookies do not expand much in the oven.
- Bake in the preheated oven, checking occasionally, until bottoms are light golden brown and cookies are set but still a tad soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove cookies to a rack to cool.
- While the cookies are cooling, prepare frosting: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in brown sugar and reduce heat to low. Stir and bring to a boil. Boil, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Stir in 1/4 cup milk and bring to a boil again. Remove from heat and let cool, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Gradually stir in powdered sugar until frosting is desired consistency. If frosting hardens while working, stir in a little bit of milk.
- Spread frosting on cooled cookies.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Cream butter or margarine with mixer. Blend in whole eggs, sugar, and extract. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. When the ingredients are thoroughly mixed, add oats and pecans. Mix on lower speed until consistent.
- Drop pieces of the dough using an ice cream scoop onto an ungreased cookie tray roughly 3 to 4 inches apart.
- Bake 8 to 10 minutes. Eight minutes would yield crispy cookies with a chewy, slightly doughy center. For harder, crispier cookies, bake longer. Cool on wire rack.

BANANA NUT COOKIES
These are so easy and so good! Like banana bread in a cookie size! Even better when they're frosted (mmmm...buttercream :). Can roll them and cut them out, or just roll into small balls and squish with the bottom of a glass. I've used the Betty Crocker and Mrs. White's muffin mixes with equal success. Have yet to try with Jiffy mix though since it's always out.
